DVD to MP3 conversion

I would like to know if iTunes or any other Mac application can take DVD to an MP3 file. I see lots of Windows applications that can do this, but do not know of applications for Mac to do this. The end result is to take DVD recordings and import them into iPod.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Thanks for your reply. I am just interested in getting the audio (MP3). My iPod is not a video model, audio only. I want to extract the audio from the DVD video recordings and produce MP3 files.
It looks like Handbrake can do this. I have been reading a lot about needing to use special calculators and determine bitrates and such. Is there a simple guide for using handbrake to take DVD recordings to produce an audio MP3 for import into iPod?

How to rip DVD to MP3

How to rip DVD to MP3
Are you looking for a program that can help you extract audios from a concert DVD or a movie DVD, and then save them as MP3? If so, Pavtube DVD Ripper would be a nice choice, since it is able to remove protections from all sorts of DVDs, as well as convert and extract DVD files to many other video and audio formats, including MP4, 3GP, AVI, MPG, MPEG-4, FLV, MOV, 3G2, VOB, MP3, FLAC, MKA, OGG, WAV, AC3, M4A, etc., so that you can do whatever you like with the output files. Now I’ll take how to rip DVD to MP3 for instance, and aim to show you how easy it is to achieve this goal via the help of Pavtube DVD Ripper.
Step 1: Add DVD files
You can load DVD files into this program through “DVD Rom”, “DVD Folder” and “IFO/ISO”.
Step 2: Select MP3 as output format and set destination folder
Click the drop-down list of “Format”, and then check “Common Audio”, after that choose “MP3” as the output format. Meanwhile, if you do not want to use the save path set by default to store the output MP3 files, you can click the folder icon at the end of “Output” to specify your own destination folder. Additionally, if you want to combine all the audios into a single file, you can tick “Merge into one file”.
Step 3: Adjust audio parameters
Click “Settings” button, then you will enter the interface shown as below, on which it is capable of adjusting audio parameters like codec name, sample rate, bit rate and audio channels. Generally speaking, the default parameters can basically ensure the good output audio quality, but if you want to get a better quality, you can change the figures to be larger. Meanwhile, you should notice that the larger input values, the larger output file size.
Step 4: Start ripping
As soon as the above mentioned steps are finished, you can click “Convert” button to start ripping DVD files to the format of MP3. Once do it, the following window will show you clearly about the ripping info, such as ripping progress, ripping time, generated file size, etc., even you can choose “Shut down computer after conversion” to do other things while conversion is underway.
After finished, you can find the output MP3 files extracted from your DVD files through clicking on “Open” button.

I am not personally aware of any freeware that does what you ask. However, DVDxDV Pro (check it on VersionTracker) does what you want. The shareware price is $80, and is considered fairly high end. It does rip out audio separately from video. There is a less expensive version of this app available also, $25, but it does not separate the audio.
good luck

DVD to MP3?

How I make to convert DVD to MP3? Only the sound...

Actually your going to transfer the *.VOB file into a *.MP3 file.
My thought on DVD's I bought the DVD "legally" and I'd should be able to listen to the music I purchased on my Ipod!!!!!!! "legally"
I have been searching how to do this for weeks downloading different software, but finally success. The ripper software actually breaks each track into a single chapter where you can then change the name from chapter # to song name.
This is the least painful way to convert.
Step 1. ImTOO DVD Ripper Platinum For $45.00. http://www.imtoo.com/downloads/dvd-ripper-platinum.exe
Step 2. Winamp Pro $19.00, so I could manipulate the information like tracks #, artist, etc, etc. You can manipulte the data in windows explorer but with limitations.

Satellite A110-160 turns off by itself when im making a dvd to divx conversion

My Toshiba A110-160 turns off by itself(abruptly) when im making a dvd to divx conversion(autogk for example).
This didnt happen before..
I am using an updated bios v1.7(the latest).
Do you think it is because of that?? I have also made a memory upgrade(2GB,667mhz) and I am using windows xp and ubuntu.
Any ideas?

Hi there,
I don´t have any clue why the machine shuts itself off and I cannot give you a quick solution but I can give you a thought how to make some accurate troubleshooting:
Remove the newly installed module and try it again. Then give some feedback if it worked. If not we have to discuss further on that issue, would appreciate some feedback from you.
bye

Music will not play after AAC to MP3 conversion

Hi, Please help! Over the past couple of days I have converted ALL my music (46GB) from the mix of MP3 and AAC to all being MP3 at 160bit rate. I removed all the music from iTunes and then just re-added the new MP3 conversions. Now when I open iTunes I get the following error box "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly". The tracks will simply not play. The MP3 files work fine when burnt onto a CD via my burning software. I have re-installed Quicktime as advised, but don't want to re-do iTunes as I have loads of playlists created. Anyone any ideas on how I can fix it? My XP machine is fully up to date, iTunes is latest version, all drivers are up to date and valid. Many thanks in advance, Ewan
Vaio Windows XP Pro

I fixed it by deleting the MP3 and re-loaded / re-sync it back.
It took over 2 hrs as I had over 1000 Mp3.

MP3 Conversion to Audiobook Format (MP3 to M4B Conversion)

I have several (175 to be exact) MP3 files that are part of a very lengthy sales course. I would really like to have these in the audiobooks section of my i-Pod/i-tunes so it doesn't rotate into my music choices/shuffles etc.
Is there an easy way to convert these and have them stored in the audiobooks? I have seen a couple remedies that do not neccesarily work. Thanks for any input anyone can give.

DVD to ipod conversion

I've read several of the forums on how to convert DVDs to work on the ipod. I've downloaded a decypher Application which worked fine however when using the converter it takes forever to convert the file to store it into itunes. I'm converting the movie "Cars" and it has been running for 2 1/2 hours so far. Is this normal or is there a better/faster conversion tool available. I'm using Videora Ipod converter.

In my experience, video files that I have made only sync to my iPod if they of the "Movie" or "Music Video" kind. When I put them to the "TV Show" kind, they play in iTunes, but don't sync to my iPod.
You can check this by selecting the video file, getting track info, going to the options tab and making sure that "Video Kind" is set to "Movie" not "TV Show".
Let me know if that makes a difference.

Help -- MP3 conversion problems

Currently converting wave files from SoundTrack Pro into mp3 by using the Automator for encoding and import into i-tunes. Although the wave file sound is clear and clean, the mp3 files have a slight echo/reverb to them and I have not been able to overcome this.
1. Does anybody have a solution to the echo?
2. Is there a better program available for conversion to mp3?
Any help will be appreciated, as clients are not ecstatic about this "new" sound.
Thanks,
Jack Burke

The other tip is very helpful, but you can also use iTunes.
Drag your file (AIFF or WAV) into your Library and convert it by rightclicking on it and choosing "Convert selection to ...". Before you do this, set the proper mp3 format in your iTunes preferences (Preferences - Advanced - Importing). I think the default is AAC import, so you have to change that when you need an mp3. Import using mp3 encoder, custom... Then choose something like 192 or better kbps bitrate, [x] Use Variable Bit Rate Encoding and Joint Stereo. This will render a pretty decent mp3 file.
Good luck!

DVD to .MP3 Converter

This is my first post because I have a dilemma. I am trying to find a way to convert my course DVDs for an online masters program into .mp3s for the rest of the class and instructor. I have the permission of the university. I just don't know how to do it. I have tried a couple of free programs and trials of programs but nothing is working.
I semi-frequently edit on Final Cut Pro, so I understand a bit about video technology, but I am only limited to that little bit.
I am willing to spend up to $50 on a program that works. Any ideas?

Hello, and welcome to the Forum.
I have done this with MPEG Streamclip, which is a great, free utility for working with all kinds of video. You will also need the Apple QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component ($20) if you do not already have it on your Mac. It is downloadable from the Apple Online Store.
With MPEG Streamclip you would open the DVD, then Export Audio, select an encoder (you will have to go with AIFF or AAC). You can convert the resulting audio to MP3 using iTunes or almost any sound editing app.

HT203167 What software does Apple have to manage Dvd to ipod conversion etc

Afraid they don't have anything to replace DVD SP. Your alternatives are Adobe Encore (which is EOL) or Toast, or IDVD (which can still be found in boxed sets of iLife).
But getting back to DVD SP and your data transfer, what do you mean by that? What exactly did you do and what happened with the application? I'm running it on 10.7 and it works, but it's from the FCS3 suite; is yours FCS2?.

Freeze/Crash during MP3 conversion

I've been using iTunes to convert WAVs to MP3s for file size reasons. In the last week, iTunes has become temperamental and nearly always freezes/crashes during the conversion process. I have tried reinstalling. Is there something I overlooked?
Note: I am converting to 320kbps @ 44.100 kHz MP3s.

I don't know why it's crashing as I avoid using iTunes for encoding anything.
There are a few audio conversion programmes about, have a quick google, you'll hit gold in no time.

Can't complete Videora DVD to ipod conversion

I've used the Videora DVD Decrypter and Converter step by step instructions but can't seem to complete the download to my ipod at the end. In the Videora conversion guide Step 9 says that I should be able to simply copy the (DVD) file to iTunes but when I try to drag & drop it doesn't happen. HELP!!!!!!! Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Do I still need to somehow convert file to MPG? Did I miss something?

Sounds like you may be using Videora instead of Videora iPod Convertor.
If you're using this guide:
http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/guides.html
in step 8, you're actually converting the ripped DVD to iPod format. Be sure you're using this program:
