Ah well, this failed to install, by the looks of things due to my 5 unconfigured packages that I'm having problems with. I can install from the standard sources though, so from looking at the dependencies of this I've installed youtube-dl [1] and clive [2]. The first quite happily downloads a Youtube file that I can then play with videolan, the second should also do a conversion, but I've not managed to get it to do that, or use my proxy yet. Both are CLI apps though, but I'm quite happy with that :) Just thought others may be interested, but you probably all know of those packages anyway - I've only really bothered with sound, and hence multimedia stuff, on my Linux boxes recently. Too busy being productive ;) [1] http://www.arrakis.es/~rggi3/youtube-dl/ [2] http://home.gna.org/clive/ (*) both of course easily installable with aptitude or synaptic in Ubuntu :) -- Paul Tansom | Aptanet Ltd. | http://www.aptanet.com/ | 023 9238 0001 ====================================================================== Registered in England | Company No: 4905028 | Registered Office: Crawford House, Hambledon Road, Denmead, Waterlooville, Hants, PO7 6NU -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
