I believe that is the case. You can only use extract on mp3 files with the Sound object and not on streams with Netstream - unfortunately this feature didn't make it into FP10 (hopefully FP11?). Depending on your setup, one option might be to use a tool like ffmpeg to convert the mp4 to an mp3 server-side, and then load that into a Sound object to do the extraction.

So I'm trying to play Mp4 audio files with Sound, but it doesn't seem to work. I have gotten it working with NetStream class, but I'd really like to use the extract() method to get the underlying samples form the mp4 files just as I can with mp3. Am I correct in that Sound class doesn't support mp4, but only mp3? What's the deal with that? Is Sound a wrapper around NetStream? If so how could I get the samples?
