web-to-webm Build Status

web-to-webm is simple, cross-platform gui tool for extracting clips from any of Youtube videos (and from many other supported services) and converting them to webm format.

Download

For downloads, visit Releases page: https://github.com/solusipse/web-to-webm/releases/latest. There are Windows (64 and 32 bit) and OS X (64 bit) releases.

If you are on Linux, follow these steps:

  1. Build web-to-webm (see Building section).

  2. Install youtube-dl (download page):

    • sudo curl https://yt-dl.org/downloads/2015.02.10.3/youtube-dl -o /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
    • sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl

  3. Install ffmpeg via your package manager.

Usage

Time format

Format is derived from ffmpeg. You have to use colons as separators. There are three options:

  • just seconds (ss - ss, e.g. 5 - 35),
  • minutes and seconds (mm:ss - mm:ss, e.g. 15:00 - 15:25),
  • hours, minutes and seconds (hh:mm:ss - hh:mm:ss, e.g. 02:05:00 - 02:05:30).

You can mix these standards (e.g. 55 - 01:15 which is equivalent of 00:55 - 01:15 or 55 - 75).

Interface

Building

You need QT5 to build this software. To build web-to-webm, type these commands:

  1. qmake-qt5 web-to-webm.pro,
  2. make.

On Windows and Mac OS X it will be probably easier to use QT Creator (open .pro file to start).

Supported sites

Since web-to-webm downloading mechanism is based on yotube-dl it supports same services. For full list see: http://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/supportedsites.html.
