Hi Scott,

I didn't know hak5 had a youtube channel until you mentioned it.  I just pointed my podcatcher on the tablet to the rss xml feed on hak5.org.  I did realize you were outputting mp3.  That's neat.  I want to figure out a way to have another machine retrieve the mp4 automatically when a new one is posted in their rss xml feed, extract the audio as you described, email the audio to my tablet, then delete the mp4 file.

I heard on one of the Linux podcasts about some sort of task scheduler where you could run batches of commands on schedule.  It wasn't crontab.  But now I cannot remember where I heard it.  I might have to go back and listen to a few of the tux radar shows.

Sincerely,

Ron

Sent from my Android Acer A500 tablet with bluetooth keyboard and K-9 Mail.
Please excuse my potential brevity.

(To whom it may concern.  My email address has changed.  Replying to former
messages prior to 03/31/12 with my personal address will go to the wrong
address.  Please send all personal correspondence to the new address.)

(PS - If you email me and don't get a quick response, you might want to
call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new email messages very quickly.)
