 |
|
| Is there a way, in Gentoo (or Linux generally) to rip video -- be it FLV or some other format -- from a binary SWF file? Given that FLV format files are playable in Linux, it seems like it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to transcode the video embedded in a SWF file. |

This will let you transcode to avi ( everything in the box is one line )
| Code: | | mplayer [file.flv] -forceidx -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=1000:mbd=2:v4mv:autoaspect -vf pp=lb -oac mp3lame -lameopts fast:preset=standard -o [file.avi] |
mind you the only reason for doing this would be to make the file searchable since mplayer seems to be unable to search in flv files. |

Uhh I think you mean mencoder, also you should NOT need -forceidx or -vf pp=lb (pp=lb is linear-blend deinterlacing, useless unless the file is ACTUALLY interlaced, which no Flash video should ever be because most computer monitor's are Progressive scan). In addition I'd recommend using trell in the lavcopts as well, since it can help quite a bit.

yes ofcourse I meant mencoder ...woopsie ^^
-forceidx is there just to make sure the the resulting file is searchable
the same for the video filther, it doesn't hurt to have it there - so if your making a generic convert command it migth as well be there. ofcourse you are free to remove them - they are after all options  |
