If you can get them online, I'll share them using BitTorrent Sync. I could set up sftp server for you, if you need place where to put files. If your upload speed is not great, maybe we can do it differently - I could send you flash card by mail, you write everything to and send it back, and I'll put everything up in BTSync.

Let me know if you want to do this, send me an e-mail to [email protected]

As for those big files - you can easily cut off prestream from latest files. ffmpeg can do that without re-encoding: "ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c copy -t 00:35:00.0 output.mp4" - that would copy only first 35 minutes. Only you'll need a bit of work here to find the time when prestream ends for each file.

Does anyone have a script that will download just audio ?

youtube-dl will do that.
For example, to download AAC audio run:


Run youtube-dl -F https://... if you want to see other possible formats.

Thank you for your help. I may have overlooked it in the help file, but is there a parameter I can pass to download the files to a specific directory?

It downloads to current folder. So simply "cd" to folder you want and then run youtube-dl.

I don't remember the details but you can use -o FORMAT to output to a specific directory. Something like that:

You can also take some online video downloader like convert2mp3, offliberty, keepvid that can download as Audio format(MP3, AC3, etc): http://www.videoconverterfactory.com/tips/sites-like-keepvid.html

Or take browser add-on like savefrom net helper: https://en.savefrom.net/user.php#download
These are easy to use.
