I just finished watching Motorcycle Diaries. My mom is from Peru, and the movie hit me pretty hard. I got to the end and lost it when the music started playing, at which point I was inspired to pull the audio from the end credits and share it with mommy dearest.
Thank you, mplayer. This post got me on the right track: http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mencoder-users/2006-May/003223.html And finally this line got me what I wanted: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ mplayer dvd:// -aid 128 -ss 7040 -vo null -ao pcm:file="motorcycle.wav" I little oggenc fun and I had something to share. Backing up, let's parse that mplayer line: dvd:// worked for me, but the movie might be on a different track for you. Use the line from the mencoder-users list above to find the right dvd://# track. "-aid 128" means pull the audio from track 128, the default audio track. Again, check the tracks. "-ss 7040" was the weird part, because I _actually_ wanted to seek to 7080 seconds into the movie, but when I gave it "-ss 7080" it started recording 20 seconds after that point. If anybody can clue me in as to why that might be, that'd be great. "-vo null" no video, kinda obvious. "-ao ..." also kinda obvious. Hope somebody finds this helpful. DISCLAIMER: I'm not encouraging anybody to rip off songs and share them with the world. MPAA, RIAA, etc: you listening? I'm just sharing with my mommy. -- Cristobal M.
