Record Audio From DVD - Is There A Way With MC?

Not without connecting sound out to sound in on the sound card with a cable.

There are a large number of DVD tools at www.doom9.net.
I tried to use one a while back to extract the audio from a DVD but it indicated that it would take over an hour to do that. I didn't want it that bad.
There are probably better tools to do that now but I haven't checked.
JimH's way is by far the easiest ... unless your sound card has a "What-you-hear" recording option? Never tried it with a DVD.

I was Hoping you could rip the sound from a hour show in like 2 mins, with something.

I looked at like 10 programs with no luck.

don't see why this is not an option.

This Worked Well

http://www.imzero.com/dvd-audio-ripper.html

Save As MP3 Or Wav

Then I Loaded In MC11's Media Editor Cleaned It Up A Bit, And Saved It To A MP3

Here It Is

UFO Theme Song, A TV Show From The 1960's

UFO - Theme Song (32Kbps) 300k  (http://www.spartasoftware.com/TV-Shows/UFO/UFO - Theme Song (32Kbps).mp3)

UFO - Theme Song (137Kbps) 1.1 Megs (http://www.spartasoftware.com/TV-Shows/UFO/UFO - Theme Song (137Kbps).mp3)

I Am Hoping MC12 Will Have Some DVD Audio Ripping Functions...

For this to work, don't you have to bypass the DVD copy protection? If so I don't think MC will ever support that, as it's not really leagal....

I Agree, But

I did not have a problem with it, and the program does not By-Pass Any Protection, That I Could Find Out.

BTW I Am Working On This Page

Geeeee King

Nice setup, but

Im starting to believe youre older

then Jim and I

added together.

 ;D

but, all kidding aside,

very nice.

Seen the Admiral TV stuff, brings back memories.

My parents had something like the 36rw45 walnut, but I think it was a 19.

They always watch Lawrence Welk

and I would sneek out of bed at night to watch "The Silent Service"

That was the days when you only had one channel, KDKA.

Notice a long time ago you had some A?? and A??? radio shows.

Did you ever find their TV shows on VHS or something?

Once again, nice setup and thanks for the memories.

Griff

PS

Seen you had "a" tomato.

Did Andy eat the rest?

 ?

I Just Think there should be a way to rip Audio From DVD, Many People to includ my self have Music DVD's that we should be able to rip and listen to from our car, along with other uses.

The Ripping Video may be another story and i can see a reason why it should not be an option.

King,

Several software allows ripping/converting audio tracks from DVD:
http://www.dvdtox.com/dvdaudioripper.htm
http://www.imzero.com/dvd-audio-ripper.html
http://www.xilisoft.com/dvd-audio-ripper.html

Those are very good shareware packages.

Althought it requires a lot more skill, you can also use GordianKnot http://gordianknot.sourceforge.net/ as a free alternative to extract the audio (ac3) tracks from DVDs.

Hope this helps,

Have a good day,

Christian

The software program certainly does bypass the DVD's CSS encryption scheme, or you wouldn't be able to extract audio from the vast majority of commercially-available DVD's (as they are all encrypted).  The de-CSS decryption doesn't take long at all (on modern computers, that's what you get for using low-bit encryption keys), and may be fairly transparent to the end user in some of these applications, but it is still there...

You can be sure, this will NOT be an option that will appear in MC anytime soon (at least with the current copyright-holder-dominated regime we are living under).

Well I Did Buy

http://www.dvdtox.com/dvdaudioripper.htm
And
http://www.imzero.com/dvd-audio-ripper.html

Both Seem To Work

The PreView Option On #1 DVD Audio Ripper Does Not Seem To Work On My PC For Some Reason. (I Have A Call Into Tech Support).

All In All If You Were Recording A Full Show This May Be The Way To Go.

But I Just Wanted A Min Or Two On The Show Theme Song And MC11 Seems To Work Well Doing That.

32kbps Seems To Be Fine, Any Lower Bitrate Seems To Cut Out Too Much Quality On All.

If this was Not In Violation With Copy Write Laws I Do Feel It Should Be Added Or A New J River Project.
