Music from .MP4
I used Win 7 movie maker to extract a portion of a .MP4.
Now I want to extract the music to a windows compatible music file. Then put on my cell phone. Can something on Windows 7 or XP do this ? If not, is there a free application to do this? TIA |

If not, is there a free application to do this? TIA I like FFMPEG. It works with movies, sound and video. It's command line. The following is an example only, but is likely to work for your test.MP4 as well. ffmpeg -i test.m4a -c:a libmp3lame -b:a 192k test.mp3 FFMPEG is normally available as source, however there are build-meisters who make available very nice binaries. https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/ (Example of a Static build, a nightly from February...) https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/wi...n32-static.zip You want 32bit, static, because the static version, the ffmpeg.exe file (36MB) has all the DLLs baked into the executable. That means your copy of ffmpeg.exe is portable and can be put anywhere you need to use it. That's why I prefer static builds. The included ffplay.exe, plays stuff for you. So you can verify that at least *something* will play it. Paul |

TIA As others have said, there are lots; I presume with a name like "WinUser" you'd prefer a non-command-line one. There are still plenty: the couple I use on XP are Free Video to Audio Converter and AoA Audio Extractor. GoldWave (the audio editor) can load (audio from) at least one movie format, too (so obviously can save it). -- J. P. Gilliver.

I use it whenever I want to create an audio file (to put on my iPod ) from a MP4 or MPG file that started as a TS file captured from my DVR.

It just extracts the original soundtrack as is.

Thanks all !
I can and did search BUT I was looking for your opinion on something you used and how well it worked. I have a few new things to look at now. Does anyone know if Nero can extract audio from movies ? |

Does anyone know if Nero can extract audio from movies ? Why not see if they have a "Trial" version, download it and see ? http://www.nero.com/ena/products/nero-recode/?vlang=us If you have Nero on your machine already, I don't recommend mixing Nero products on the same computer. Use a second computer to run the trial, before you decide to buy it. Nero is the "King of Cruft" in terms of the amount of bloat they'll put on a PC. And I don't trust them to mix previous paid licenses with new trial versions, without breaking something. Sometimes usage of a Trial, causes a paid version to "break". Paul |

Out of curiosity: (a) which browser (and version) do you use, (b) how do you _do_ that, get the whole page (or, as in this case, even better, a selection of it) into one .gif? Practice :-) I have a print driver that can "print to Postscript" a 24 inch by 108 inch page. This allows longer web pages to be acquired in one shot. It also helps with web pages, where subsequent pages in a print, the frame goes "underneath" the page and you get white for pages 2 through n. So if you can manage to fit a web page into a single sheet, it helps. The only reason a print cannot be made larger than that, is 108 inches is the coordinate space limit for Postscript (in this case). Then, I pull that into GIMP and convert it to a GIF. In this case, I scaled the image down a bit so it wouldn't get flagged on PostImg. You can never really tell what PostImg is going to do. Strictly speaking, the image dimensions are too big. The image should have been auto-scaled down by the web site (which would ruin it). So I don't know why I got away with it. But, I had to try. Paul |
