Title: Help needed to rip audio from .mov... within the next hour!
Post by: Meowster on Mon 26/01/2009 22:59:26
'lo all,

My idiot friend left it until three hours before the closing date of a competition to enter. Then he realised he didn't have any of the MP3s on his home PC.

I decided to search my PC for any old tunes of his I had.

LONG STORY SHORT I need someone to rip audio from a .mov file within the next hour (closing date of the comp) for me! I have no software and no idea how to go about this, and man, if someone does it I will personally... hug the crap out of you if you go to Glastonbury this year.

ALL MY LOVE,

Salks

This program seems to do what you want:

Garagegothic, you have saved me :) (and my idiot friend)

If you come to Glastonbury I will reward you with Hot Spicy Cider or a (free-range ;)) hogroast sandwich... :D!

Problem resolved!

I'm happy it worked out. You can buy me a beer if you ever visit the Roskilde Festival :)

I'm unemployed right now but actually I've really wanted to visit Roskilde for a while. So I may take you up on that... if not this year, the next :)

Assuming I'm no longer unemployed by then of course....

For future reference, you don't need 3rd party software:

WinXP? Decent soundcard?

Double click your speaker icon. Select the RECORDING options.

Check the WAVE OUT tick box. Make sure no others are ticked.

Open the MOV file, pause it.

Open SOUND RECORDER. Press record.

Hit play on the MOV file.

Voila :)

Just to be awkward, a slightly easier method using audacity, switch the recording option to "Stereo Mix" and then hit record and play.

Basically the same as m0ds but I don't think windows refers to "wave out" any more. Could be wrong of course..

EDIT: This was about 10 hours ago, sorry.
