Feb 4, 2012 at 11:06 comment added Baarn @FakeRainBrigand: Haha, good to know! But I got an alternative that should not be built in: youtube-dl $1 -q -o - | mplayer - directly plays the video inside mplayer. I use that command from my laptop to tell my server (which is connected to the TV) to play videos. I have to append -display :0.0 -geometry 400x300+1200+200 to let the mplayer window appear on the correct screen.
Feb 4, 2012 at 2:07 comment added Brigand youtube-dl has an option to only save audio. My usual command is this, where URLs come in on stdin: youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format mp3 -a -. Still a cool example, but there are easier ways to do it. (It calls ffmpeg internally.)
