huffduff-video, my latest side project, lets you send Huffduffer the audio from videos on YouTube, Vimeo, and more. Just grab the bookmarklet, click it next time you find a video that you want to listen to, and it should show up in your podcast app automatically!
It’s pretty bare bones, but it does the trick. Thanks to youtube-dl for all the heavy lifting, Jeremy Keith for building the wonderful Huffduffer, Bret Comnes for the inspiration, and interviewers and speakers everywhere for providing so many great videos to huffduff!
@kevinmarks lack of official podcast feed a strategic choice? Thanks for tool tip thoug. Will be used!
Hi! Who is paying for the storage? Is there a way to donate. Because I really really like this. Its what I was looking for for a long time.
Also, would it be possible to always add the video link to the description?
@Christian thanks for the kind words and the offer! don’t worry about donating; i’m going to make the mp3 files expire after a month or two, so storage should only cost me a few dollars a month.
and yes, video link in the description is a great idea! will do.
Thanks again!
#IndieWeb I’ve always loved @huffduffer! @weegee asked a question that I’ve always struggled with. @schnarfed has already built the answer – naturally.
Kevin’s (happy birthday by the way) question: “So recently I’ve been using the “Interview” and “lecture” subreddits to find all sorts of great interviews and profiles. However, many of them are in video form on Youtube/Vimeo and the like. Is there any way to huffduff a video to “listen” to? I don’t feel I need to see a lecturer at a podium or interview subject on a couch to get what I’m looking for.”
I’m not sure why I’m surprised anymore, but it seems like every time I find some really useful bit of web technology, it’s coming out of the extended IndieWeb “Camp” (pun moderately intended). Thanks @adactio and @schnarfed for making my life easier and better.
I do feel a bit cheated that I didn’t actually find the functionality directly on Huffduffer (or just noticed that it now somehow works with my long-loved Huffduffer bookmarklet). I wonder what other goodness I’m somehow missing out on… (Anyone can feel free to send me a list of their favorite services and other bookmarklets.)#WhatIUse #FTW #Podcasting
