Extract audio from a DVD how to

Is there a FREE and ease way to extract audio from a DVD?
Thank you

Set a tape recorder next to your speaker? Seriously, though - what kind of DVD? If it's a commercial DVD, it's copyright protected and people here shouldn't give you advice on how to do it. There are other places besides Apple's discussion forums to get that kind of info, and I don't see why this question belongs in "Using Mac OSX Leopard" in the first place.

Freeware app to extract audio from a DVD?

Hello all,
Is there a freeware program I can use with OSX.3.9 to pull bits of audio from a DVD? Say about 30 seconds here, and 20 seconds there from a couple of different DVD's is all I need.
Fingers crossed, I'm on a bit of a tight schedule with this one!

Good grief... I had that on my computer already, and have never used it...
THANKS! It worked great!

Is there a way to extract audio, such as a song, from a dvd and turn it into an mp3 file for recording on a CD?
Thank you for your help.

two options:
converter tool Mpeg Streamclip allows a direct export to mp3 (mp2 playback component needed, 20$)
or
connect a DVDplayer's audio-out via a cable to your Mac's audio-in, launch Garageband/Audacity/.. and record the audio..

Copy/extract audio from a DVD

Can someone help? I have never used GarageBand and would like to do something pretty basic. I have a DVD that I would like to extract parts of the audio and convert it to MP3. Is there a [easy] way to do this using GarageBand? I want to use the built-in DVD player in my laptop.

No, GB certainly isn't the software for that. You might check the free VLC video player, it can play DVDs, then export only the audio. Once you have an audio file, you can use GB (or any audio editor) to edit it.
Another software to extract an editable file is Handbrake.

Extracting audio from a DVD theme????? to edit????

I want to take the 16mm projector sound out of the "old theme" projector theme and put it in garage band so I can add a layer of music and then return it to the theme....
When I try to drag the sound file out of the theme or click it to save it just deletes the file.
Any ideas?

How would you suggest putting it back, I can figure it out being familiar with Unix but it might be helpful to give the extra line to Jim.
I would suggest not to put the sound back to the original "Projector" theme, instead make a "Favorite" theme (i.e. a copy) of the "Projector" theme, then after modifying the AIFF sound file Jim intended to do, drop the modified file onto the "audio well" in the Custom / Settings drawer panel of this "Favorite" theme. This should replace the original sound with the modified one.

Extract audio from dvd

I am trying to extract audio from a DVD I have previously made, when I open it there is nothing in the Audio_TS file. I have seen the previous post about video files. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=596051&tstart=15
I would imagine that it would work the same way. I tried streamclip but it says I am missing a the mpeg-2 component. I did not think I needed this for a non-comercial DVD,
I would like a simple way to use a sound clip off a dvd if that is possible. thanks

follow Daniel's excellent suggestion (hardware solution).
to get just the audio (parts of) from a DVD is no trivial task…
the mpeg2 playback component is needed, because that is the codec in use on any videoDVD
the AUDIO_TS is allways empty on a videoDVD, it is only in use for SuperAudioDVDs.. (rare HiFi format)
the audio of a dvd is well hidden, "woven", muxxded (=tech term) into a data stream… tools as mentioned bbdemuxx demux that stream, in a second step you have to convert the file into something... usefull....
get a few cables, as Daniel said...
Plan C)
invest in tools as Ambrosia's Wiretap which records any sound, your Mac produces... you playback the DVD on your Mac, and you record simultanously the sound... needs additional $$ software and the same amount of time as Daniel's suggestion…

How to rip RAW PCM audio from a DVD

Hi guys,
I know audition can rip audio from a cd and from a video file but how can I rip the raw pcm audio from a dvd. I usually just record using 'what you hear' through my soundcard but is there a more accurate way of ripping the audio from a dvd? Any help would be nice....thanks in advance
George

I don't know of a way to do it with Audition, but there are some free little programs like VirtualDubMod or SmartRipper that can rip the WAV. There are some tutorials on the net on how to do it.
Just as a side note, PCM Audio on DVDs has 48 kHz samplerate, not 44.1 kHz like CDs.

How do I extract audio from a movie?

How do I extract audio from a movie I downloaded from iTunes and save it to my iTunes library to use as a ringtone?

Do you have Qt Pro...?
If not, you may be able to extract the audio with this free program:

I created in iMovie, and extracted audio from one of the clips to use in the title sequence. All is well, export to iDVD and it plays OK, but when I burn the DVD the audio for the titles does not play. Any suggestions?

Extracting audio from premier project is not automatically opening in audition .How to reset this

I was using the feature of extracting audio from a time line in Premier for working on noise reduction and so on .It used to open automatically on choosing
" EDIT CLIP IN AUDITION" and on "saving" it was ready in Premier for further action. Now this is not happening. What happened and how do I reset this feature please?

Not a reply but some more input. The culprit is not Safari but iChat, which I discovered just now, having run the app and quit after the person I was inviting wasn't available. I'm grateful for anyone who shed some light on this for me.
All the best,
David

HT4016 How to extract audio from a movie that is already in my project without having to delete and re-import the movie?

The article is
"How to extract audio from a movie file"
But it only tells you how to extract when you first drag the movie file into the project. This much is obvious when a dialog presents you with a checkbox asking if you want to "Extract the audio track" ... Duh
Here was my workflow:
Dragged the movie file into my project
I checked "Extract the audio track"
I shifted the "Movie Start Time"
Extracted audio track did not shift with the movie
I deleted the extracted audio and played the audio directly from the movie
Now, I need the audio extracted again at the current movie position
I knew where this option was in the Logic 9 menus, but I'm having trouble finding it in Logic X
Is this option still available, or has it been removed?

Solved:
I found the menu option for extracting or re-extracting the movie audio. BTW, the original article:
Logic Pro 9.1: How to extract audio from a movie file in 64-bit mode
should really also state the menu command for extracting the audio, not just the procedure when first adding the movie to the project.
Here's the menu command:
File>Movie>Import Audio from Movie
Cheers

Importing Audio from a DVD Concert

I want to import the audio from a DVD concet into iTunes.
I've tried MactheRipper and MAC3dec to do the conversion but the main concert file was 1 hour and 15 minutes long and it only imported the intro which lasted about 45 seconds.
What I'd really like to do is import the entire concert then cut it up into songs to import into iTunes.
So my questions are:
1. How do start with a 1.3 hour audio file on DVD and end up with 16 song files in my iTunes library?
2. Is it possible to do this with AudioHijack or a similar program?

The software is capable of extracting audio only at the chapter level. Using a DVD I mastered myself, I can use the Mode button, then select Title - Chapter Extraction, click the D button, and then the Streams button becomes active. Clicking that opens a drawer where all the various audio tracks are available, and they can be extracted one at a time using the SChpt and EChpt drop-down lists.
Again, please be sure that whatever you're doing with a DVD is legal in your own case. I am not suggesting that you use any particular software for any particular purpose, but just explaining how to navigate through a confusing interface in a program you already seem to have.
EDIT: I've read through your posts again, and you mentioned that you bought the DVD. Of course I can't be sure about this, but if it's a commercial DVD, it is most likely encrypted. In that case, you really must be sure that you have the right to extract audio tracks from the disc (or even to use the software in question)--even though you're not "copying" the disc by working only with the audio portion, it may be the case that even the audio on the disc is protected in some way by copyright. So, I can't emphasize enough that I in no way am encouraging you to do anything outside the scope of fair and legitimate use of your DVD product.

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.
