capturing HQ audio from u-tube?
U-tube has recently begun hosting various tv shows, such as Macgyver and
Star Trek. Is there any way I can download the audio in a high quality format? I would prefer just to capture and save the shows directly from U-tube, but I don't see any way to do it. Suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, RJ |

I have used this a couple of times: http://dvdvideosoft.com/products/dvd...-Converter.htm It just does what it says. The computer I installed it on hasn't shown any signs of it containing malware.

Wouldn't the audio lose quality since it's converted to MP3? Of course, I don't know the original format of these new CBS U-tube shows. They may be MP3 to start with anyway.

The Youtube server apparently converts the material to H.263 (see Wikipedia) anyway, which embeds the audio as mono MP3. Jos. -- Ardis Park Music www.ardispark.nl |

Using a website called "kick" (adding the word "kick" in front of utube), I can download in MP4 format. Now, I am not familiar with audio compression having used wave format, so can you tell me which is the better format for audio purposes, MP3 or MP4?

Mp4 is for video. Other than that, I can only refer you to the Wikipedia, unless of course the experts on this forum want to share their views. Jos. -- Ardis Park Music www.ardispark.nl |

The higher the specific data rate, teh better.

Of course, I don't know the original format of these new CBS U-tube shows. They may be MP3 to start with anyway. Audio and video posted on UTube is generally highly compressed before downloading to save bandwidth and space on their server. Compared to what happened when it was uploaded, most things that happen during downloading are pretty innocent. I can't imagine the degradation of the shows' audio, if any, would be audible. Right, it would probably be minor compared to the damage that was already done during production and uploading. The Youtube server apparently converts the material to H.263 (see Wikipedia) anyway, which embeds the audio as mono MP3. |
