Burning audio content cd from a dvd ??

Hello, Does anyone know if it's possible to take the audio content from a DVD and burn it as for eg. an MP3 or something that could be listened to on a cd player? I have some presentations that are video recorded and want to copy the audio as such.
Thanks

Hi
There is no tool to do this directly as standard on Your Mac.
I guess that programs like WireTap could do part of it.
I would either:
• connect recorder eg my miniDV tape Camera and do an analog copy
then import this into iMovie HD 6 and from here export out as QuickTime
expert-mode and as an audio .aiff file.
This can be imported into iTunes and from here to an audio-CD or as .mp3
• or use Roxio Toast™ to back convert the DVD to streamingDV then to iMovie
and as above.

Transferring audio content only from music DVD

I have a commercial music DVD, whose music I would like to transfer to iTunes and on to my iPod. I am only interested in the music. Can I separate the music content in some way?
Thanks

Not sure if I am allowed to mention other products, but a Google search revealed a free piece of software that resolves this issue. "Free DVD MP3 Ripper" by Jodix. It is very simple and does the job.

How can I make an audio only CD from a DVD

I am really kind of new at this but my church makes DVD's of the services but some of my Sunday School teachers want to have a CD of the sermon. Does iDVD have the capability to burn just the audio tracks onto a CD?
Thanks.

Hi
No !
You first have to back-engineer the DVD to something the Mac can use eg StreamingDV
(I use Roxio Toast™ to do this) then convert this via QuickTime to .aiff 16-bit 44.1 kHz
then burn this onto a CD via eg iTunes.
An Analog copy from a DVD-player to the Mac Line-in and into an audiuo editor as Audacity (free on internet) then use this for the CD is easier and about as good as. (I can't differ)

Cannot open burned audio CD's any longer

I am running OS X Lion 10.7.5 with all updates and cannot open burned audio CD's anymore. DVD's and store bought music CD's work. Any ideas?

Memorex do not have a high reputation, and some superdrives are more picky than others.
What you could try is to make a copy of the DVD on a recommended brand of media, and see if that works on the iMac.

My burned audio CD/DVD from iTunes doesn't play on a CD/DVD audio player

If I burn audio CD or DVD from my iTunes, I cannot play this music on an external player. Any recommendations? Thanks

Hi I just burned an MP3 CD straight from iTunes, and it doesn't play on any MP3 CD player I've tried it on (car MP3 deck, DVD player that plays audio CDs, and MP3s). Audio CDs burned from iTunes work fine though.
I've read somewhere, that when burning MP3 CDs from iTunes, iTunes burns it with Apples standard format, rather than CD players standard format of ISO 9660. And that is the reason why burned MP3 CDs from iTunes only plays on a Mac.
A work around I've done was select all the songs from my list duplicate them in another folder, and then reconvert them in MP3s (so that I don't have to search all over the place for each MP3 file). I then burned these MP3s onto a CD-R using toast's MP3 CD format. And it works on all my MP3 CD players. However, in doing this process, I've lost all the tags for each MP3. The only thing that comes up in the display is the name of the song. Artist, Album, etc... don't show up anymore.
Is there a way of burning an MP3 CD that will play on all MP3 enabled players, while keeping all ID Tags intact, in iTunes?
Thanks.

Burning downloaded content to DVD

Hi all
Seems like I am still a newbie switcher but trying to learn fast. Hope I do not bore you all to tears!
Although I know that QT does not support .avi or .divx formats.
If I download content from the net in those formats (TV series or movies) can I still burn them to a DVD to play on a standard home DVD player? Or should I use something like Visual Hub/iSquint/Handbrake etc. to convert the file formats?
How do I burn the content? Do I merely drag-and-drop the file onto the blank DVD disc-image? Or is that too simple?
Thanks so much,
Chris

I would get QT Pro and the codec you need then file-export. Make sure you own the content . Then figure out which format your dvd-player can play. check out the dvd forum org. ffmpeg also works. some dvd players do divx. I would try to burn a Video CD or a regular DVD. If you do DVD it'll have to be AC3/PCM audio and MPEG-2. That's an extra cost. Or you could try iDVD or DVD Studio pro, but those are kind of buggy also. Verbatim media.

Extracting just audio from a dvd

I have a couple of concerts on dvd and would like to be able to burn the audio to cd. Is there anyway to do this with in the macbook itself or with freeware? When I import the dvd's using mac the ripper they import as video-ts files and vob. I'm not good with this kind of stuff so I thought that little bit of info may help. Thanks in advance.

Mac the Ripper has the option to split out the audio track and/or the video track separately. Click the D button for Demux options. I'm not sure what audio format you will get from the DVD.
You may also want to convert the audio file into an alternate format, I haven't used this utility, but you might try:
http://ffmpegx.com/index.html
Another alternative, which requires real-time playing the DVD, is to use something like WireTap to capture audio from the Mac.

Good luck.

Ripping audio from a DVD - Any ideas for Macs

Hi
I found a nice and simple piece of software from www.imtoo.com which can rip the audio out of a DVD and save it as an audio file for import to iPod. For a whole bunhc of reasons I'd rather have just the audio from films and comedy shows than the whole video.
Oddly this was listed in MacWorld, but they don't do an Apple Mac version. I am after a one stop solution if anyone knows of one - guess there must be as the IMTOO product works so elegantly, am sure someone has done this for the Mac.
Cheers
Sammy

I am not aware of any tool for the Mac that can rip audio from a DVD-A (audio only) disk.
I am also not aware of any 1 step tool for ripping the audio from ordinary DVD video disks.
The approach I took when I did this involved using MacTheRipper to copy to a hard disk, another tool to extract the audio, and then if I remember correctly, I used QuickTime to save the tracks as individual files (with the correct track lengths are listed on the cover). I was then able to burn the results files to a CD (audio format), and incredibly the resulting CD was recognised by iTunes (and Gracenote CDDB) with the correct tracks names etc. (The DVD was of a concert.)
This as you can tell was not a simple one step operation, it took most of an afternoon trying various tools.

Ripping Audio from a DVD to iTunes

Does anyone know a simple way to rip the audio from a DVD to an mp3 for use in iTunes? I have some stand-up DVD's that i would like to listen to when I want.

You have to extract/demux the audio portion from DVDs using a tool like MPEG Streamclip http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-win.html
As most commercial DVDs come CSS encrypted in this case you have to use a so called Ripper to copy the DVD's content first to your HD.

All I want is audio from a DVD!

I have a few music DVD's, and all I want is to get the audio from them into my iPod. 1) I've seen the debate rage re. whether or not one SHOULD be able to copy DVD's (video and all), but no one ever definitively asked or answered, much less on this specific question re. "audio only from a DVD imported to iPod or iTunes Library." 2) I understand that if it involves a "work-around" of copy right protection measures, that such "work-around" instructions cannot be given here. 3) But if that is the case, WHY?! I don't get it... copy right laws allow us to burn copies of CD's we own, why are DVD's any different?

hey there Addys,
DVD's use a different codec, sample & bit rate as well as a bunch of other specs than CDs. also commercial DVDs, be they Audio or Video have a copy protection scheme. in addition, the few Audio DVDs i've heard also have some sort of image. music CD's on the other hand have no copy protection to circumvent. iPod & iTunes music will only do stereo audio anyway, not the 5.1 you may have on your Audio DVD.
it's against the terms of use here to discuss ways to circumvent DVD copy protection.

Editing from VIDEO_TS dvd content...

I need to edit the content of several old DVD's. I have successfully transferred the content from all the DVD's to my hard drive. I am able to edit all of the content in Premiere normally except for the content of one particular DVD. If I drag the VIDEO_TS folder from this DVD into VLC it plays perfectly. It also, of course, plays perfectly directly off the dvd. If I drag the VIDEO_TS folder into Premiere it imports properly but the content is a mess. For example, the video clips are all truncated, the audio does not align etc.
Notes: the problem DVD is the only one that transferred to my hard drive and did not create an AUDIO_TS folder.
Any thoughts?
thanks,
chris

I want to get audio only file from DVD-R. Please help.

I hope this is the right place to ask.
I have just completed copying a radio play from VHS to DVD-R.
(Recorded off air from high quality BBC FM onto VHS sound only in 1993)
The copy is a success inasmuch as I now have the high quality copy I desire and I can play it (via the DVD player) through the hi-fi with TV turned off.
However, I want to go further and load the DVD-R into my iMac and make an Audio only file of the soundtrack for use on my iPod for instance.
I have no idea if this is possible with the standard iDVD (or other software) on my iMac or how to even start.
I guess it would be equivalent to loading a standard DVD movie and making a file of just the soundtrack.
Has anyone any ideas please?
Thankyou.

If you used your computer as part of the VHS to DVD process, then you'll have a digital audio file that we can find, but I'm guessing you used a VHS to DVD standalone recorder. If so, you can use some free software called MPEG Streamclip:
- insert your DVD, and Quit from the DVD Player if it starts automatically.
- start MPEG Streamclip and open the DVD; then open the Video TS folder and open the first of the .VOB files (repeat this step until you find the file you're interested in).
- use the Export to AIFF option and you'll have the audio file.
- you'll be able to bring this file into iTunes, burn it to CD, etc.

I use imovie to create videos. When I burn the video to DVD and play it back there is digital breakup in the playback from the DVD. The digital breakup does not show in playback on the computer. I understand there is a file I need to delete and reboot the computer and imovie will rebuild the file in the program. Help!

My method is to use the DAW in standard recording mode, and set up the camcorder entirely separately. After recording, I automate the audio mix with fader moves and effects, then export ("bounce to disk") a full-fidelity AIFF, 16-bit 48 kHz stereo file (most videos use 48, not 44.1). I use iMovie '11 to import the video from the camera, then import the stereo audio file and match it up to the camera audio by dragging it into the iMovie Project. Make the waveforms visible, it's not too hard to align.
Then, use iMovie's "Export as Quicktime" feature. Here, by going through the menus and options, you can control the audio compression (for example, 256k instead of 128, although 128 seems to be enough for YouTube).
AppleMan1958 posted a YouTube video about controlling iMovie's export options that may help:

Putting audio track from a dvd on an iPod

I have a 2nd generation iPod nano 2g. Can the audio from a DVD be added to it?

If you can extract the audio off the DVD and convert it into a format that can be played on the iPod the answer is yes, but iTunes will not do all that for you.
You will have to find DVD ripping software to strip the content off the DVD. If it is a copy protected DVD then that would also be illegal.
