3 months agoThey can spend millions on contractors to create surveillance software but its Communism if you build affordable/free housing and give people free healthcare. Utterly bizarre SV government logic. Don’t worry bro, tech will fix it.
Are you using GNOME or KDE? I know those can definitely utilize shell scripts from the right click menu. I’d recommend grabbing FFMPEG (probably already have it) and SOX. You are going to need to create a pretty basic shell script that extract the audio as a wav using FFMPEG, changing the speed with SOX (you can use FFMPEG but I find the audio warping dog shit), then FFMPEG to convert to mp3. For both GNOME and KDE the context menu shortcuts typically only pass the path to file you have selected as an argument. So you’ll need to create a script for each speed. Honestly, it’s not gonna be easy. You might find something in the Dolphin (kde filemanager) settings that will enable some basic context menu scripts for converting video to mp3. If this is too intimidating then I would check github for an FFMPEG wrapper. It’s the a/v swiss army knife in linux.
