Convert charlie to mp3

Grabs `charlies` as flv by scraping site.
Need to automate this, perhaps redo in node or ruby.
Generate playlists, or rss feed for itunes consumption.

Walk and scrape the site (30 days)

This srapes the site by day, call wget

python walkCharlie.py

extract url, from local scraped files

python lookCharlie.py|grep url  

fetch and convert

# "url":"http://charlierose.http.internapcdn.net/charlierose/digitalgrill_content/081711_2.flv"
wget http://charlierose.http.internapcdn.net/charlierose/digitalgrill_content/081711_2.flv
ffmpeg -i "081711_2.flv" -acodec libmp3lame -ab 128k "081711_2.mp3"

Batch convert

for f in *.flv
      do 
      ffmpeg -i "$f" -acodec libmp3lame -ab 128k "${f%.flv}.mp3"
done

PyQuery install

God I hate this crap.

tar xzvf pyquery-0.6.1.tar.gz
cd pyquery-0.6.1
sudo python setup.py install

ffmpeg on OSX

Install ffmpeg using macoprts. (includes lame et al.)

# sudo port selfupdate #(twice when updating pre-2.0)
# sudo port upgrade outdated
port variants ffmpeg
sudo port install ffmpeg 

How about doing this with homebrew instead ?
