Dit leerprogramma zal u in het halen van de audio uit een DVD en dan het omzetten van het in .mp3 voor gebruik met uw iPod of MP3 speler begeleiden. Alle software die in dit leerprogramma wordt gebruikt is vrij.
NOTA:
1. Gelieve te zorgen ervoor dat u (juridisch) de audio uit uw DVD mag halen alvorens de stappen in dit leerprogramma te voltooien.
2. Ik maak geen eisen dat dit de „beste“ manier is om de audio of de muziek op een DVD in mp3 om te zetten. Wat I zal de eis is dat deze methode voor me telkens weer heeft gewerkt, is het niet zeer hard, en het voortvloeien mp3s correcte groot.
Eerst zult u moeten downloaden en installeren MacTheRipper en ffmpegX. Beide programma's zijn vrij (ffmpegX is volledig functionele shareware).
MacTheRipper is een zeer ongecompliceerde installatie - sleep enkel MacTheRipper van .dmg aan uw omslag van Toepassingen. ffmpegX is een neteliger beetje (maar zeker niet hard) - volg enkel de instructies bij http://ffmpegx.com/download.html zorgvuldig.
Het halen van audio die uit een DVD MacTheRipper gebruikt
- Neem DVD op u wenst om de audio uit, en dichte iDVD (of een ander programma te halen die kunnen gestart hebben wanneer u DVD aanbrengt). Lancering MacTheRipper
- Selecteer Wijze het lusje en kiest dan Titel - de Extractie van het Hoofdstuk van de drop-down lijst
- Van de tweede drop-down lijst zult u de „titel“ moeten selecteren u wenst om te halen de audio uit. Als de audio u gaat voor ergens in de „belangrijkste eigenschap“ van DVD is (d.w.z. het is niet in het `bonusmateriaal' of de supplementen `' op DVD), selecteren de titel einden waarmee (MF). Als probeert de audio u te halen is in de de bonuseigenschappen of supplementen, zult u moeten berekenen die „te kiezen titel“. De lengte van elke titel (in uren: notulen: seconde) kan zeer nuttig zijn in het bepalen van welke is wilt u.
- Selecteer het hoofdstuk u wenst om te halen de audio uit. U kunt veelvoudige hoofdstukken kiezen, maar zij moeten opeenvolgend zijn (kies een begin en eindhoofdstuk). The more chapters you choose, the longer (and larger) the resulting file will be.
- Now click the D button, and then the Streams button. Remove the check marks from any of the Video Streams (since we’re going for the audio, we don’t need to extract any video). Each DVD will differ on the number and types of Audio Streams available. Remove the check marks from all of the Audio Streams except one - ideally the AC3 6Ch. Make sure none of the Subtitle Streams are checked and then click GO!.
- If this is the first time you’ve used MacTheRipper, you’ll be prompted to save the file somewhere. Choose your Desktop (it doesn’t matter, just remember where you saved the file).
- When the extraction is complete, MacTheRipper will let you know


Converting the DVD audio to MP3
- If you happen to have a media player installed that can play .ac3 files (eg. VLC) you can use it to listen to the file (to make sure you extracted the right one etc).
Now we’ll turn the .ac3 into an .mp3, using ffmpegX.
- Open ffmpegX and drag the .ac3 file into the Drop file here window.
- In the Target Format column, select the small arrow directly next to To. Choose Audio file to mp3 from the bottom of the very large drop-down list. Do NOT choose Movie file to mp3, even if the DVD is a “movie”.
- Now select the Audio tab and choose a bitrate for your mp3. I like to use something a little bit higher than the default 128, but this is a personal preference. Remember, the higher the bitrate, the larger the resulting file will be. Click Encode when you’re ready.
- ffmpegX will display a status window letting you know how things are going
- The status window will change to Finished when it’s done
- If you check the folder where you saved the .ac3 file, you’ll now find an .mp3 as well. That’s it! You can rename the mp3, move it to your Music directory etc.

I’ve been looking all over to figure out how to do this. I thought I was going to have to buy Conversion - Thanks!!!
Ian,
Glad to hear it helped
Has anyone else seen this problem?
After clicking Encode, the encoding process finishes almost immediately, and apparently successfully, but no audio file is saved. Clicking the info button shows this:

[ac3 @ 0x5597b8]Could not find codec parameters (Audio: ac3)
Thanks for posting this! I’ve been looking for a means of extracting audio from concert dvds that I own.
Unfortunately, I get the following error (with both 5 channel and 2 channel input files):

Any help/thoughts? Thanks!
The process above works well for DVDs that have AC3 audio track. I was wondering what to do about those DVDs that have PCM tracks instead. Mac The Ripper and osex will both rip the DVD audio to .PCM files, but I can’t find a way to go from .PCM files to .MP3. Any hints on that are much appreciated. I have two concert DVDs that I really want in my iPod and am having zero luck. Thanks!
If you encounter where 0kb mp3 files are generated and get error “could not find input stream” , then try running the following from terminal:
/Applications/ffmpegX.app/Contents/Resources/ffmpeg -ab 256 -i in.ac3 out.mp3
You need to key in the correct file paths and names but it worked for me!
Another tip solution that worked without using the console - just ensure you select the target format in ffmpegX to be AUDIO file to MP3 - the others are not working as Ross rightly mentions in the tutorial.
Great guide. However, I am having one problem by following these steps.
I extract a single AC3 stream with MTR, and test it with VLC player. It plays fine.
However, after I encode the mp3 using ffmpegx the song shows up in the mp3 2 times (back to back)
(FYI I am running this on Leopard)
Any Ideas?
I take that back!
MTR is the one putting the song 2 times in the extracted AC3 file.
I am using MTR 3
Any ideas?
For those who had trouble using this method, here’s an alternative (I just used it with PCM audio):
I was able to extract a chapter of a DVD using Handbrake, as an AVI with MP3 (you probably want a ridiculously high bitrate, as it will later be converted to AIFF, before being converted to whatever you want.) I was able to open and play the AVI with Quicktime Player (and the help of Flip4Mac to handle the AVI video encoding–which may not be necessary just to access the MP3 track–I already had it installed.) I was able to trim the combined audio and video to the starting and ending point desired using Quicktime Player, then export the trimmed portion of the audio to AIFF using Quicktime Player’s export function. If you want another format, you can convert it with iTunes.
Oh my gosh, I wish I had found this article two days ago. I wasted SOOO much time.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!!
Thanks for this step-by-step guide, couldn’t be any easier. On occasion though, the speed of my resulting mp3 is too fast, like doubled. Any suggestions on what I’m doing wrong or missing?
@Marco6:
OK you have me stumped on that one. I’ll google it and see if I can find anything, then get back to you.
Wow! Talk about complex for no reason.
Use YADEX. Its free and will do the same in a second!
How can I choose multiples chapters ((choose a start and end chapter)?
Thank you,
Francisco
Somehow it doesn’t seem to work
Everytime I keep getting an error.
“couldn’t find the proper codec”?????
I installed ffmpegX using the guide on the website.
Also installed te required add-ons
What am I doing wrong???
Please help.
Got exactly the same problem …
Any advice is welcome.
Thanks
