How to extract audio from a youtube video

Filed under: Uncategorized — alessandro @ 12:00 am

I was looking for the song Also Sprach Zarathustra.
But I could only easily found it as video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLuW-GBaJ8k.
After a quick search I found out how rip the audio from a youtube video (via linux/fedora):
1) Download a video from youtube
–  yum install youtube-dl
– youtube-dl
2) Extract the audio track
– ffmpeg -i nodame_theme.flv -ab 128 -ar 44100 nodame_theme.mp3  (thanks to http://linux.byexamples.com/archives/229/extract-audio-from-video-or-online-stream/)

3) verify and play your file 🙂

That’s it folks!

Linguine with lobster

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: — alessandro @ 12:00 am

For the first time, I tried this dish on my own. After I’ve heard of my friend Matteo’s huge success last weekend!
The master of this dish is ZeroZero in Florence, but mine didn’t perform that bad!
