How do I strip the audio from a DVD?

Chuffy

I have several DVD's of live concert performances.
Is it possible to copy the audio only so I can listen to it on a cd/mp3?

Many thanks.

I asked this same question few days ago and some great techies gave me these two sites to look at:

http://www.dvd-mp3.org/

Hope this helps. :beer:

i've been wanting to do this on a simply red concert ... tried all the above and haven't managed with any of them


i'm not very techie ..

Thanks guys, the software at http://www.castudio.org/dvdaudioextractor/ worked great - it took about 4 hours though! Was able to select/deselect chapters (tracks) easily - my personal favourite.
DVD Audio Ripper worked, but with the trial version you were only able to rip the first 5 minutes, so uninstalled that.

both look ok, although glump needs you to install several programs, dvdaudioextractor was an all in one package only limited by the trial.
MP3 Ripper looks good - can you select/deselct chapters? Any idea how fast it is?

pennymakespounds, try again using auto settings, no reason why shouldn't work.

chuffy ... where do i find "auto settings" ??

pennymakespounds

seem to get to "step 4 of 4" .. "start encoding and watch the process" ....

where it appears to be copying it .. took 50 mins .

No idea what to do now ... it doesn't tell you anything .

just the "4 of 4 " screen....with "help.... restart...back..or exit... buttons... cannot click the "next" button.

what now ?

Chuffy

Green start button, almost smack bang in centre.

pennymakespounds

just the "4 of 4 " screen....with "help.... restart...back..or exit... buttons... cannot click the "next" button.

what now ?

I had no choice earlier but to "close" .. just gone back on now to look for the "green button" and it just takes me back to the screen with "step 1 of 4" .... the select chapters dropdown with 3 choices but no data /detail... but it did spend 50 minutes downloading it earlier.

This is exactly where i got to yesterday trying it.

Not exactly user friendly ?! I'm beat. !

pennymakespounds

if the "green button" is the "start" button .. that's what i used earlier to start the encoding.

i have just put the dvd back in but it goes to the step 1 screen showing all the tracks .. ready to start the whole procedure again
