Access error 000000000 read 0000000 in dvdvideo soft youtube to mp3 using wine

sorry, i forgot to mention, i have a wubi install with ubuntu 11.10. i use gnome interface.

If you want youtube to Mp3, why not use:

www.youtube-mp3.org

There are also Linux local ways to do it. Why are you using some Windows software when there is native software to do the same thing...?

i do not want to have to constantly go to the site. i know its a poor excuse, but if im going to use ubuntu, i need a local way of doing this.

if there are in face some software that is for linux that can do this, please let me know the name of this software, i would GLADLY use it instead, but until then, ill need help getting this problem fixed.

So I'm guessing you are downloading flv files from the site? Is that correct?

yes, although i would prefer to let a software or some sort of GUI to do that for me, and then have that same software or another gui tool to convert it to mp3. the reason i am so bent on getting that fixed in wine is because i have used it for years in windows, and it would make life a lot easier if i could have some of the things i had in windows in ubuntu.

ffmpeg -i inputfile.flv -acodec copy ~/Desktop/output.mp3

You can even make it into a script:

#!/bin/bash
ffmpeg -i "$1" -acodec copy ~/Desktop/output.mp3

You can name it something like extractmp3 then you can run:

extractmp3 input.flv and the file will be spat onto your desktop

thanks for the script! it works very well! i found a program called downloadhelper for getting the video, then i used that as the input file, and, well, wow, thanks, it works very well!

You need to take your windows hat off, stop trying to use windows apps in Ubuntu and try finding native solutions. They will work and work cleaner with fewer resources

im trying, im trying. but its a very hard process, making the switch from the lies of microsoft over to open source.....but im going to make the switch anyway.
