After download, you can use ffmpeg to extract the audio

ffmpeg -i file.mp4 -vn -acodec copy file.aac

Can ffmpeg identify which audio and video codecs are used in a given file? Is there a way to 'ask' it whether an MP4 has sound encoded in aac. mp3, speex etc?

It just seems awkward that I have to play the video in VLC to find out its format, just to find the file extension I should give the output file when I use ffmpeg to extract it.
