Would someone be able to help me convert from AVI to MP3 ?

[MAJOR METAL]

Howdy Friends,

I have recently just gotten into burning cd's and downloading music, I found a rare smashing pumpkins track that is in AVI format and I am looking to convert it to MP3. Could anyone help in this process ? Thanks, MAJOR METAL.

Are you putting it on iTunes?
If so, should it not automatically ask you if you want to convert it

This is what I use.

Whoops! I misread! .avi, huh? For that I use Soundforge to make it a wav then winlame to make it mp3.

 

[AaronD]

Be sure to back it up when you do convert it!
I learnt that the hard way

Its just an AVI file I have on my laptop that i would like to convert to an mp3 and put on a cd. I have several times tried some of the conversion software for turning a youtube video into an audio file but I couldent even figure that out, my technical skills in this area are lacking.

I have used Virtual Dub in the past with great results. The program can be downloaded here:http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/virtualdub/VirtualDub-1.8.1.zip?download

The instructions on how to use it can be found here: http://www.doom9.org/

Click on GUIDES on the left. On the GUIDES page, look for ">> Convert, Edit & Capture" and click on the link VIRTUAL DUB PROCEDURES. On the next page, find and click on "Extracting MP3 audio from an AVI". It's the fifth link down.

Hope that works for you.

This is what I use. http://www.any-dvd-converter.com/

It costs a few bucks but it also lets you extract audio directly from YouTube. It's been very useful for me.

or send it me, i'll do it for ya

.avi is video extension. So you will have to extract the audio from it. You can try wmconverter it is hit or miss but when it works it works perfectly.

As far as the instruction all you do is drag the file you want to convert and press what you want to convert it to. In your case mp3

Try FormatFactory.

Totally free, & converts almost any media file into any other media file.

Only downside is that it's Windoze only.

well i failed

or at least lost interest after i tried to install some dodge software...

however Major Metal, i did find the studio version which i am PMing you now. any good??

(no offence but the sound quality of that video was lousy!)

AoA audio extractor works pretty well too. It's easy to install and use and naturally completely free. http://www.aoamedia.com/audioextractor.htm
