Convert video sounds to mp3

Hi,
Sometimes I like to listen to video soundtracks but not watch the videos. Now, I listen to videos and it drains my battery too fast. Is there a way to convert ipod videos soundtracks to mp3 files and listem to them like songs?
Thanks.

Try searching the Internet (via Google) for software that does that.
What type of videos are these? Were they purchased?

    Not sure if any are PPC, oR 10.5.8 compliant, still, if you give a link to one you're trying, it may be helpful.

  • Can't convert videos to MP3 in Windows iTunes

    In the Mac version of iTunes, I can convert a video podcast into an audio-only MP3 file. I do this by highlighting the podcast episode, then going to File and clicking on "Create New Version" then holding down the "option" key to activate the "Convert to MP3."
    But when I try this in the Windows version of iTunes, I cannot get "Convert to MP3" to activate. Instead, it remains grayed out and nonfunctional. My Windows keyboard doesn't have an "option" key and neither the "ctrl" key nor the Windows key nor the "alt" key will activate the command.
    So how do I get "Convert to MP3" command to activate.

    This is SUPER, what I use to convert videos. All the settings I have selected are what I used to get the video to work. The problem I had before is that someone told me that the iPod uses MPEG-4 video, and I assumed that .mp4 was the file extension(Output Container sets what the file extension will be) for MPEG-4. Turns out, it's not. The OUTPUT VIDEO CODEC needed to be MPEG-4, but what I had it set to was H.264/AVC. So the Output Container was right, just not the Output Video Codec.
    So basically, the fix is to just use the right settings Which, if you use SUPER, is everything I have shown(Adjust the bitrates to your liking. More is higher quality, less battery life. I just watched "Wanted" last night with those current settings, and it looked and sounded alright, but I'll probably put the audio up to the next level for any future movies).

  • No sound when convert videos to ipod

    i have bought quicktime pro, and i can successfully convert videos onto my ipod, but there is no sound on them. has anyone got a clue how i can resolve this?
    thanks alot

    No new "points" can be given as yours was just a tagged on response to an already answered question.
    Muxed file formats (MPEG 1 or 2 and Flash) are intended for playback only. MPEG 1 or 2 require licensing agreements ($$) from the Moving Pictures Export Group (the people that make the file name MPEG) which would be passed on to all end users and Apple has decided against those extra fees.
    Those are the "limitations" of the Apple software. It currently doesn't extract audio from muxed file formats and I don't expect any changes any time soon.
    Dozens (hundreds) of third party software apps can convert your file and include audio. Many of them are free.
    MPEG Streamclip offers both a Mac and Windows version. It can convert your .mpg file with audio. It even has a "one button" export feature to meet the specifications for iPod files.
    Now you really know the limitations of the software and the reasons for them.
    Get some third party tool to make your iPod files from your muxed file formatted ones.

  • Converting video to IPOD 30g but the sound doesn't work

  • Converted videos to iPod format--NO SOUND???

    Hi, I just used iTunes to convert three Quick Time videos of mine to work with my iPod. One of them wouldn't convert because it "does not allow for saving or conversion". The other two came out as MPEG-4 files and when played they had no sound. They transfered to the iPod, but didn't have any sound there either. What can I do to preserve the sound when I convert them?
    Thanks for your help.

    we had better check to see if it's all videos that aren't converting with sound (when you do the conversion), or just the specific ones you've been converting. this document should be of some help with that:

  • CONVERTING .WMA SOUND FILES TO MP3s ON A  MAC

    CONVERTING .WMA SOUND FILES TO
    MP3s ON A MAC - Written 9/28/07
    Here's some help on how to convert .WMA sound
    files to MP3 sound files on a Mac. Hope it helps.
    1. Open the .WMA sound file in Quicktime.
    2. In the Quicktime menu tool bar, go to FILE and
    select SAVE AS.
    3. Save the .WMA sound file as a self-contained
    movie .MOV file. Then create a folder on your desktop
    to store the .MOV files that you created.
    4. Open iTunes and create a new playlist by
    going into FILE in the iTunes menu toolbar and
    select NEW PLAYLIST. Then name your playlist.
    5. From the folder created on the desktop,
    drag the .MOV files into the specific playlist you
    created in iTunes.
    6. In the specific playlist you created in iTunes,
    highlight the .MOV files with your mouse. Then go
    to the iTunes menu toolbar and select ADVANCED.
    7. In ADVANCED, select CONVERT SELECTION TO MP3**.
    Then wait for the iTunes' "ding noise" to let you know the files
    have been all converted.
    **To have CONVERT SELECTION TO MP3
    listed in ADVANCED:
    (a) To have CONVERT SELECTION TO MP3 listed in
    ADVANCED, go into iTUNES in the iTunes menu
    toolbar and select PREFERENCES.
    (b) In PREFERENCES, select the ADVANCED icon. In
    the ADVANCED icon menu, click on IMPORTING.
    (c) In the IMPORTING menu, go to the IMPORT USING line.
    Now scroll down and select MP3 ENCODER. The click
    on the OK button.
    8. After the .MOV files have been converted to MP3 sound files,
    erase the .MOV files listed in the specific playlist you created.
    9. Take your mouse and click on the MUSIC icon in the LIBRARY section.
    Now in the LIBRARY section, search for the converted files.
    Once the converted files are found, be sure to highlight one at
    a time-- you'll be making sure which ones are mp3s and which are not.
    10. Once a converted file is highlighted, go into FILE in the iTunes
    menu toolbar. Click on GET INFO and check which files are
    .MOV or MP3 files. Delete each .MOV file found.
    11. Now you're left with the converted MP3 files in the LIBRARY.
    Highlight and drag all the converted MP3 files from the LIBRARY to your
    specific playlist you created. Now you're done! Enjoy your
    new MP3s!

    There is no solution for playing and coverting DRM-protected WMA files on a Mac. I don't even know of a way to covert DRM-protected WMA files on a PC; you normally have to reimport them from the CDs, or when purchased from a download store burn them to an audio CD (where allowed).

  • Converted videos play, but no sound

    Videos that I have converted are synced and playing on my i pod, but they have no sound. Any help on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

    QuickTime expects video files with separate video and audio tracks, but many MPEG formats used a muxed (multiplexed) single track that contains both. Therefore, iTunes & the iPod (both of which use QuickTime) only show the video and no sound.

    One way to work around this is to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files to fix this issue...

  • Converting videos to play on iPod takes away sound

    For some reason, every time I convert a video in iTunes to play on my iPod, the sound is removed. The original video and the converted video will both play in iTunes, and the original video will have the sound and the converted video will not. Obviously, when I move the converted video to the iPod, the sound still doesn't play.
    I've downloaded a few video podcasts (the Strong Bad e-mails) in iPod format already, and they work just fine. It's just ones I convert manually in iTunes that have this problem.

    Quicktime doesn't play "muxed" video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302588
    You need a 3rd party converter such as Handbrake, or MPEG Streamclip to convert the video file.
    The file must meet the following specifications to play correctly.
    H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
    -or-
    MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats.

  • No sound when converting video to ipod

    after i convert video for ipod playback using quicktime the file has no sound???.....

    it's probably best to check to see if the source files for that video are "muxed". for some more info on that, see:

  • ITunes converts video, drops sound.

    Everytime I spend 4+ hours converting a 20 minute video, iTunes cuts out the sound on the video.
    Anyone know how to fix this problem?

    Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.

    Probably the easiest way to do this is to download a free media convertor. Most will be able to convert video into audio files.

  • ITunes iPod converter, converts video clips with no sound HELP !!!

    i recently converted music videos and movies on iTunes and when converted, no sound on the converted file, i converted it on another program that is designed for iPod, the iPod cannot play this video because...and its ment for iPod !!
    the only videos that go in my iPod now are with no audio.
    how do i fix this
    please help my flight is in less than 24 hours and this problem occurs !!!!!

    this is because the video you converted is muxed which means the audio and video are on the same track, quicktime or iTune can not deal with this kind of videos, you will need another 3rd party tool to help you, try videora or streamclip, both of them are free.
