Hi,
I want to rip audio from a dvd and convert it into mp3's. After googling what I want it would seem that the software exisits via downloading from American sites. I don't want to download the software from any site ( after having my cc fraudulently used via an American site ) Does the software exist in the country and if so where can i buy it ?
TIA

There are stacks of ways to do this. One such way is to use something like DVDDecrypter to split the DVD into audio and video. You'll get the entire film soundtrack as a VBR MP3. You can then use any good sound editor to grab the sections you need.Throwing acid is bad.... in some peoples eyes...0

Hi Browntoa
I don't think that Audacity will do the job on it's own.
As JonnyThunder suggests, you need to extract the audio from VOB files using some other program.
Then you can use Audacity to edit the parts of the soundtrack that you wish to keep eg songs from a musical.
There's a link here:-http://www.area450.com/softwaremods/dvdtoaudiocd.html
This task is a doddle with linux :-http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-rip-dvd-audio-to-mp3-or-ogg.html
ps It looks like the link posted by alanclose will do the job.Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.0 -
Audacity would be able to record whatever the computer is playing through the Wave output, but that would making sure nothing else makes any noises!If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.0

I also think that when you record the Wave output in Audacity and export it as an MP3, the programme converts it to mono. That's the message I got when a recorded the audio from a YouTube video the other day.
It's still an great programme, though.0
