Stuff I don't know

[Undertoad]

Last update, I have a can of tomato soup, a can of "98% fat-free" cream of chicken soup, some frozen cheese tortellinis (enough for one, not for two), some grated parmesan, a bear of honey, worschesteshier sauce, lowry's seasoned salt, white rice, mustard mayo relish ketchup grey poupon.

Oh, um uh, update, it only has to serve one sorry for dominating the thread.

Chicken and broccoli over pasta. Use the cream of chicken as your base throw the chicken, broccoli, cream cheese, and mushrooms into a pyrex cook covered for a while then uncovered for a while.

There are other examples of audio on DVD that I'd like to have grace my iTunes library too, but.. I'm stuck. Any help would be appreciated.

TIA

Use Audacity. Free & open source. Only problem is you need to do it in real time as the DVD plays. I've actually never done it from a DVD in the drive, so that might be a problem, but hooking up the audio-out from a DVD player into your audio-in on the PC would certainly work.

UT - are you serious? Order a pizza.

Thank you. I'll track down Audacity. I would prefer to avoid the audio out to audio in, if possible. I'm no audio snob, but that does sound like a lot of (possibly, hopefully) unnecessary digital-analog-digital conversions.

Thanks again.

c-man: hahahahaha

I don't know what the fuck is living in my dryer that keeps eating my socks, but I'm not amused...

Another possibility is Total Recorder. There's a long Cellar thread here about it. It would probably work straight from the DVD drive, but I have virtually no experience with it. There is a freeware version with limited capabilities, and a cheap full version.

DVDDecrypter will do it... do it in stream processing mode & uncheck all the video streams. There's one more step that you have to do to get it to save as an audio file, but I forget what that is. I'll look it up when I have a chance.

[SteveDallas]

IFO mode.... enable stream processing.... uncheck all streams except the soundtrack.... go to Tools > Settings, then the Stream Processing tab... check Convert PCM to WAV. Use your favorite converter to make the WAV an MP3.

Ten grams of dry mushrooms is considered an heroic dose. I'm not sure of the conversion to fresh though.
