2. Extraction of the Audio.
3. Make a DVD-movie from mp4 files.

Converting MP4 to AVI:

Use a program such as GSpot or MediaInfo to determine which codecs
are employed. This will determine which program is used to split
the video and audio streams.

OGM: Use VirtualDubMod

MKV: Use MKVExtract

mp4: This is tricky: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG-4"> many versions.
Fortunately, only a few are used currently, and YAMB is rather successful.
