Big_Dave Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Use Roxio Sound Editor to import the sound. If you create an .iso of your video then use Import from CD/DVD with Roxio Sound Editor. You will have choices on the output file type and watch when the file is being stored. Actually, you can bring in your .vob stuff directly.

I have tried from 5 different DVDs I have (none of any commercial, copyrighted DVDs) and on only 3 DVDs was I able to capture directly from the DVD. On the 2 that failed I got an error message about incorrect/invalid audio codec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Dave Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Walt, Maybe you need to do a clean install. All of my captures were from the hard drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_Dave Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Yes, and I responded to create an .iso and go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_Dave Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 That method also works better with one song per chapter. However, if there are multiple song per chapter then Roxio Sound Editor appears to be the better tool for extraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For commercial DVDs that option may well be disabled since extracting the audio would be illegal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickh Posted July 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 What kind of DVD is this? Commercial or a home-burned DVD? For commercial DVDs that option may well be disabled since extracting the audio would be illegal. I have tried a couple of home-burned DVDs. The last one I tried had a VIDEO_TS folder containing VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB, VTS_01_0.IFO, and three VTS_o1 files. All of the above have grayed out Extract Audio. Does anyone have a suggestion about a free DVD Ripper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could try first capturing the video from the DVD to a mpg file on your hard drive and then use Nedia Manager to extract the audio You can also try with Audio.Music Director to extract the audio. It seems to have an option where you can extract audio from a DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
