I have a song that I want to extract from an AVI movie (downloaded from video.google.com)

I mainly just want to ask a friend that speaks japanese what they are singing xD

Is there any way of doing this? Any help apretiatet

PS.
Tried VLC... but it insists on including the video -.-

avidemux2 has an option to dump out the raw audio stream.

Open avidemux.

Rebuild index, if asked.

Audio -> Save.

It's a lot easier to use ffmpeg


ffmpeg -i youvideo.avi thesoundyouwant.mp3

Note that unless you've installed the Medibuntu version, you'll get mp2, rather than mp3.

ffmpeg can also be used to copy the audio stream without re-encoding:

ffmpeg -i input.flv -acodec copy output.mp3
If you want to know the audio codec of the original file:

[frink@hedron ~]$ ffmpeg -i input.flv
Stream #0.1: Audio: mp3, 22050 Hz, mono, s16, 56 kb/s

for mplayer users:



mplayer -dumpaudio video.file -dumpfile output.mp3

ffmpeg:


ffmpeg -i file.avi -vn -acodec mp3 file.mp3

ffmpeg:


ffmpeg -i file.avi -vn -acodec mp3 -o file.mp3
"-o" is not an option in ffmpeg and will create an error.

Sorry the "-o" isn't supposed to be there. :)

the "ffmpeg -i input.avi -acodec copy output.mp3" command worked just fine. thank you!
but my AVI contains several audio tracks, and with this command only the first one gets extracted. how do I modify the command to extract a certain track (I need he last one).
