no, Previously I could from shellworld use YouTube dL, I believe we have a second option too, convert the video to either mp3 or m4a, and get the audio that way. It was a dance, but I did it for work related things. now, or at least last I checked with our admin, YouTube is less friendly to third party command line tools. besides, Mike gave me enough of an idea that I doubt I would gain much from actually accessing the presentation directly. Thanks for the idea though!
Well youtube-dl still works fine whenever I use it, so that should still be fine. And it has arguments to only download the audio part if that is all you want. For example: youtube-dl -f 140 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0jECuwrn_U That downloads an m4a audio track only. About 12MB in size. -- Len Sorensen
