Howdy, folks!
I'm wondering, how does one convert the sound-track from an MPEG movie into an MP3 file, suitable for play in iTunes or on an iPod? I've got this amazing live video of Peter Gabrial's "Signal To Noise" that I'd love to put on my iPod, but I don't know how to strip out the audio!
Any ideas?
Thanks,
SpaceBoy

You need QuickTime Pro. Open the video, go Edit > Extract Tracks, and click Sound Track (or similar). Save the untitled sound track as an AIFF file and convert it into an MP3 with iTunes.

There is only one path and that is the path that you take, but you can take more than one path.

SndSampler can do it, I think. Or at least, I'm pretty sure you can extract the audio as an AIFF, and then mp3ize it with itunes or whatever. It's shareware, so it's worth a try anyways. http://www.sndsampler.com

Actually, you don't need QTPro, just an old version of MoviePlayer (before 3.0)
