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 had to restore my iPod because I forgot the password, like how santa forgot about me. And I didn't set up a Backup. SO I sort of lost everything. But I'm wondering if I can somehow get my pictures back from somewhere. PLEASE HELP ME. Thanks

- If you used PhotoStream then try getting some of them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

I installed Lion, now my dvd drive doesn't recognize any files on dvd. Please help.

I'm a photographer with tons on images on dvd and my dvd drive now doesn't recognize any files on any of my dvd's. Help!!!

After 3 trips to the Apple store this week, the issue is still unresolved. The photo dvd's open just fine on Snow Leopard, but are not recognized at all on Lion. I'm guessing since the DVD's were originally burned on a PC, they will no longer work. After finding out that PowerPC is no longer recognized by Lion and I can no longer use Nikon NX2 (Photo editing software), I will be re-installing Snow Leopard. According to the Apple store in Lancaster, Pa. there is no refund available for my Lion purchase. I have a ton of photo DVD's, most of which will not open since I've only recently switched to an IMAC system. It has made me think about returning to the PC world. I'm VERY unhappy with these developments and I really need to re-think my computer situation. I don't do much else besides photography. My purchases and time spent with my IMAC has aparently been a great waste.

Can't get sound to tv from MBP. PLEASE HELP.

I am having trouble getting sound to the tv from my MBP. I tried it on two televisions, a sharp and an LG. The only way I could get sound was through a stereo receiver on the sharp, and that took some doing.... So, I tried on the tv I mainly watch - and no sound. Is there possibly a setting within the tv, or should sound be automatic once i connect the rca into the headphone port on MBP.
The tv has the hdmi for video, and ports for audio, I plugged the white and yellow. I know it is probably something really simple - but I have tried all that I know to do. Thanks in advance....

You need an adapter. Mini DisplayPort can not output audio.

How to read a .wav file from a .jar - Please Help!!!

Hello,
I know this is a stupid question but I keep having trouble doing this. My code is the following:
    Display display;
    Alert alert;
    InputStream stream;
    Player player;
stream = getClass().getResourceAsStream("newalert.wav");
            player = Manager.createPlayer(stream, "audio/wav");
            player.prefetch();
            player.start();
...I'm running this Midlet on a Motorola A1000 and I keep getting the following exception:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
stream is null
I've created the .jad package using KToolBar of the J2ME WTK2.2 with the appropriate .wav file on res folder.
What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Paulo

Hi
If your stream is null, then the wav file cannot be reached. Try this code:
stream = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/newalert.wav");If this doesn't work either, make sure your wav file is directly in the res directory and not in another subdirectory of it. I suggets not running your application directly from the phone until it works from the WTK emulator.

Having trouble exporting mpeg2 files from FCP 3 - please help me!

I haven't made a DVD for a little while, in the meantime have upgraded my operating system from 10.3 to 10.4 and am completely up to date with QT etc. I have Final Cut Pro 3, DVD Studio Pro 1.5 and Quicktime 7.3. The problem now is that when I try to export my edited video as mpeg2 from FCP, FCP immediately quits- I just can't figure it out... it leaves a file icon in the destination folder but apparently the error in the crash report means that I'm trying to write to a read only destination!?
look! ->

Can you use DVDSP to do the encoding for you?
FCP3 was really not intended to be run from Tiger, in fact, I believe it will not install on a clean 10.4 disk.

Keep getting texts in Japanese from international friend, please help.

Okay so I have a friend in Switzerland who sends English texts to me and somehow between him sending the and me receiving them they magically transform into Japanese characters. Neither on of us have any idea what is going on. I mean his text were coming through as English not more then two days ago and now suddenly they are Japanese. The even weirder thing is i can send him texts and they come out just like intended: English. He swears he is not joking and i believe him because he has never been much for practical jokes. Please, we are both super confused. Any help or theories you can provide would be amazingly appreciated.
Example:
Me: Hey how are you today?
Him: * insert random string of nonsensical Japanese characters here*
Me: Oh god you do know you are texting in Japanese again right?
Him: *inset more random Japanese here*
The worst part about it is i have run the characters through google translate and it comes out as complete gibberish... So it isn't like what he is trying to say is being translated into Japanese it is more like his message is being....taken over by a Japanese storm of gobblygoop.

Is he attaching a signature to his texts? Is he formatting them in a different font or colored font (some phones are capable of sending like this, but the receiving phone can't "translate" the message so it comes through as gibberish) Is he attaching emoticons or smilies?
What are the two phones involved in the texting?

Installed Win7, now I want to get rid of it. Can you please help?

I am currently dual booting WinXP and Win7 (which is installed to d: ) I do not wish to format d: due to the 1 key recovery option being located on that drive.
As you may know, Vista/Win7 does not use boot.ini, it uses BCEDIT.exe (which is obviously not an XP function)
So, my question is, how do I remove the boot option and revert back to using boot.ini?
Can I smply run the restore 1 key function? Will it save akl my current programs and settings?
Thanks in advance.
btw, this is on a Lenovo S10 netbook.

Your OKR is not on D drive but on hidden partition on HDD.
You may format D without a worry.
And please do not post three different threads - better to start one with three questions.

Has anyone been able to upload an ibooks file with audio only files (m4a) in it? I keep getting the following error message during the upload in iTunes Producer: ERROR ITMS-9000: "Files of type audio/x-m4a are not allowed outside of widgets.

Has anyone been able to upload an ibooks file with audio only files (m4a) in it? I keep getting the following error message during the upload in iTunes Producer: ERROR ITMS-9000: "Files of type audio/x-m4a are not allowed outside of widgets. then it names the file as an m4p file. Everything works beautifully on the iPad through Preview, and validates through iTunes Producer up until the attempted upload. If you've been able to accomplish this, please let me know how you prepared your audio files. Many thanks.

Hello Fellow iBook Authors!
Today I received the same error that you all have been discussing. I tried selecting the DRM
and this did not work for me, though I'm glad it did for some. Here's what I did as a work-around. . .
Since iBooks Author did not have a problem with Videos, I simply used one of my video programs, ScreenFlow to turn the audio into a video file m4v. I added an image and extended the length or timing of the image to span the length of the audio file. Then exported as an .mov. I then opened QuickTime and opened the file and exported the file to iTunes.
You can use iMovie, Camtasia or any other progam that will allow you to export the audio as a movie file. Does this make sense? I hope this helps, at least in the short-term.

Getting a document file from the transcribed audio file

I would like to know how to get a "document" file from the transcribed files created by Soundbooth. The files created by SB have 'xml' or 'xmp' extensions and I do not know what to do with these files or how to "read" them.
I am on a macbook pro MAC OS 10.5.5. I have latest versions of Word, and Final Cut Pro.
Any help would be appreciated. This is my first foray into the world of Adobe products.
Thanks,
Eric

The Transcript XML files conform to the XML Standards, and are a "marked up" text document containing several pieces of information. You can open the file in TextEdit (on Mac) or Notepad (on Windows) and you should be able to see what sorts of metadata is saved for each word in the transcription. Each transcribed word is stored in a data block, along with its timestamp, the duration of the spoken word, and some other metadata. This information is invaluable when importing the file into other applications or databases.
Neither Soundbooth nor Premiere Pro support exporting the transcript without the additional metadata or XML tags right now, but since it's a basic text file, it should be a very simple chore for a script to parse that file and write out each transcribed word to a new file.
