DVD to footage with sound? Can it be achieved?

Sailor Myst · Post by **Sailor Myst** » Sat Mar 06, 2004 1:45 pm

Hi everyone it has been a while since I posted. I thought I was finally able to create an AMV and actually made 3 and listed them. One problem I did not have a way to up load them and by the time I thought I finally could The Compy crashed and took all 3 videos with it including the song files which I no longer have the CDs of.

Anyway they thankfully were saved on A DVD not a Data DVD but a movie DVD so When I tried to use OSEX and Mpeg2Decoder to put them back in the comp. I got no sound not even when I I left the audio marked on OSEX. Is there any software out there that can strip my DVD so I have the sound again as well as footage?

I have a PowerBook G4 Apple with Jaguar, not Panther, so anything that was amde for the newer system only will not work, but is there some type of file out there?

If not then Those files will never get to be uploaded and I have to start from scratch, but if I have to start from scratch it will have to wait until after ACEN, which is bad Because I wanted to enter one of those videos to ACENs contest.

Any help would be appreciated.

i dont have any experiance with macs what so ever. but i assume mac's have a simmilar sound card set up as pc. u could connect the audio out port on your sound card to the line in or mic port in it then use a sound recordeing program and record the audio through the system.(play the file in a media player and use the program to record the audo thats going from the line out port into the line in port). all u would need to buy is a male-male 1/8inch audio wire. i dont know about the audio recordeing software but i asume your mac has somekind of simple one and u prolly have a program that can recorde audio.

Are the audio tracks on the DVD? If so, are they selected for extraction?

Oh wait, they were. Oops.

It's possible that you're extracting the data but don't have the necessary filters to play it back (not really likely, but possible). How did you encode the DVD?

When I finished the AMV in Imovie it got exported into IDVD and after three AMVs were made I pressed burn. All I can do now is play them on my DVD player and that is it.

why don't you just rip the dvd like would nomally, and as Trythil pointed out select the audio streams too?

Tried that, that is what OSEX is used for on a mac. I got no sound from it even when I configured the rip to include sound. What I am asking is .. Is there another way so that I can keep the sound?

This is a long shot, since I don't know how iDVD operates, but I think you might (just might) be ripping AC3 audio, and don't have the decoder for it. If that's the case then you just need to convert the data.
