30 replies

RTKangaMummy · 10/07/2007 18:40

I have made a recording of some music using video camera with the lens cap on {on purpose} cos it was the music I wanted not pictures.

Now I want to put it on a CD

I have transferred it onto a dvd very successfully

Can it go onto a CD?

Can anyone answer the challenge?

I wonder if the deffo brill people on Mumsnet can answer that question or will it be the only unanswered question on Mumsnet?

??????

Well it is still in video camera on DV tapes

and it is on the dvd by using ULEAD editing system ie it is in the dvd player and playing with brill music and blank screen

And it is still in the computer on the ULEAD program

Can you connect a DVD/CD rewriter and a dvd player togther and then record?

Can you open the ULEAD application
and try and save the file as Sound Only?

DaddyJ · 10/07/2007 18:51

You could rip it off the DVD as a sound file
and then burn it onto the CD!

I will try that

The problem is that the ULEAD will only record onto VCD or SVCD

and I tried to set it to record onto VCD but it didn't work {I was using a regular CD}

Thanks

Yes, that's it!

Can you give that a try?

DaddyJ · 10/07/2007 18:56

Hold on - not 'play' but 'rip'.

What program do you use for listening
to music on your PC?
RealPlayer?

usually windows

but I do have real player

Windows Media Player should work fine.

Put the DVD in and automatically a prompt
should appear - right?

I have an internal DVD /cd player and an external dvd/cd rewriter

Use the internal player for the ripping
and the writer for the burning.

So put the DVD into your player first.

Need to log off for dinner but will
get back this evening - good luck!

It looks like Moviefactory does not have this feature
Basically, you are trying to 'export audio/wav file'.

We'll try another trick tomorrow.

DaddyJ · 11/07/2007 08:26

Morning RTK!

The good news is that I am pretty sure
I know what you need:
enter 'extract audio from movie' into
the Google search box and you will find
lots of applications that would do it.

The bad news is they cost money.
Although they all have free trials so
have a look at what the trial version
allows you to do.

Audacity

Play film on computer, record soundtrack onto wav/wma/mp3.

nannynick · 16/07/2007 17:59

I have a soluition for extracting Audio from DVD's. Software is call DVD Audio Extractor which has a 30 Day Trial - so you can test it out.

It extracts each Chapter on the DVD into an MP3 file. You can then burn the MP3 to a CD-Audio disc using something like Windows Media Player or something a bit better.

If your audio on the DVD is all in one chapter, and your DVD is full, then you will end up with a huge MP3 file. You will need to split that file into several smaller files, as a typical audio CD will only hold around 65 minutes of audio.
