How to get just the audio from a VOB file?

[Tinsby]

If I am in the wrong forum I apologize in advance.

I have some video files that contain TV theme music that I'd like to keep, I don't care about the video per se..

I used DVD decrypter to give me the VOB, BUP IFO files but I don't know how to separate the audio from the video streams.

I have tried Tmpenc, VOBrator, IFOedit, & VLC player to no avail.

Can anyone help me out with this?

Thanks, :D

Demux with PGCDemux and make sure audio streams are checked.

Thank you. I am sorry to report that the tiny program seems to work only on occasion. I've used it twice and it seemed fine, now I can't get it to work at all.

The message I get is : "Select a PGC with at least one cell".

I only have 2 IFO'S to choose from, as this is just a short video, it won't take either one, and I get that message.

I have a VIDEO_TS.IFO and a VTS_01_0.IFO neither of them work. Of course there is a .VOB and a BUP but for some reason the program refuses the IFO'S that I choose.

Any ideas?

I did try the post below that gives me a link to how to demux with DVD Decrypter but I can't get that to work at all, I can't find some of the boxes to check or uncheck to make it create an .AC3 file. <sigh>

Thanks to both of you! I'm sorry to be so lame but I have never done this before.

Hello from the USA!

Sorry to say I can't get the thing to work as the link implies.

The program is still producing the .VOB but I can't get it to make an .AC3. What I get is a single file called VTS_01_CHAPTER_01_1.VOB

This is a very short video taken from the beginning of a TV show it only runs about 30 seconds. Could that be the trouble?

I don't know what I am doing wrong.

Thank you for helping.

You can rename the file (VTS_01_CHAPTER_01_1.VOB) that the DVD Decrypter produced,
and rename the extension from .VOB to .AC3

I have tried it and MediaInfo did not complain when it scanned the file,
and VLC happly played the file as a sound file.

The only way I found to edit/crop the .AC3 file with a freeware sound editor
was to first convert the .AC3 file into a .WAV file and then edit/crop the file.

Hi Tinsby

You need to load up VTS_01_0.IFO in PGCDemux and select the titles domain. There will be at least 1 cell there. Then demux (you don't need to tick the Create a PGC VOB box, only Demux all audio streams). However, it sounds like this DVD is butchered in some way. How did you make it?

I was able to simply rename the file to .ac3 and then all was ok. I could edit out what I didn't want and save the rest as an mp3.
