Process recording as mp3?

[Michael Kuhlmann]

Hi,

one of the users of my server would like to have his recordings  as audio only and as mp3. Is that possible in BBB and what has to be done to get recordings in mp3-format?

Thanks a lot and best.

Hello,

You can enable the podcast format then with some scripting you should be able to convert it to mp3.

Thanks,

sudo ffmpeg -i webcams.webm -vn -ar 44100 -ac 2 -b:a 192k output.mp3  

this is a 2.7 presentation presentation recording...  the audio is in webcams.webm 
extracts just the vorbis audio and converts to an mp3 format.

you can also extract from the the video recording format if needed.

post_publish.rb is your friend.. you can write a script to create an audio.mp3 for every recording and place anywhere.

Stackoverflow i googled :) and tested.
