Re: [JAWS-Users] dvd audio extracter
For the benefit of others I will post on here. The program is called DVD Audio Extractor. It's shareware, but you can download a fully functional trial from www.castudio.org. I think for $40 or so it's worth it as it's also fully accessible with speech. Hope this helps you all. -- Chris Hallsworth e-mail: christopher...@googlemail.com MSN: ch9...@hotmail.com Skype: chrishallsworth7266 - Original Message - From: Candy Lowe candysi...@gmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Sunday, March 15, 2009 5:35 AM Subject: [JAWS-Users] dvd audio extracter I would like to extract the audio from DVD files that I have on my computer and also from some DVDs.

Re: [JAWS-Users] dvd audio extracter
Hi Candy, If you have a DVD drive in your computer, the best software to use is DVD Audio Extractor, and if you Google it, the first hit you get is the home page for the program. It's completely accessible with Jaws, and very easy to use. I wrote up a small tutorial on how to use the program, and have included it below, just to give you an idea of how easy the program is to use. Hope you find it useful. ***Begin Tutorial*** I am going to detail how I do things with this program, and not how things are supposed to be done, just in case someone decides that I'm doing something wrong. For one thing, the program is pretty much completely accessible, so there are no specialty keystrokes you need to know to rip a DVD using Audio Extractor. Having said that, the following is what I do when confronted with a DVD I wish to rip. I load the DVD in the CD tray of my drive, close it, and let it do it's thing. Depending on how you have your autoplay functions set, you will either get a pop up window asking you what you want to do with the DVD or you may get nothing. If you get the autoplay dialog box, just select do nothing, and tab to the ok button. At this point, I will open up Any DVD, and let it do it's thing by decoding the DVD. You should get a message that Any DVD is examining the disc, please wait, your disc will be available shortly. Once the tray stops spinning, you'll know the DVD has been decoded by Any DVD. At this point, you can go ahead and open up DVD Audio Extractor. Once the program opens up, you'll here the DVD spin in the drive again as DVD Audio Extractor looks for the DVD that is available in any of your drives. You should automatically land on the help button, at which point you will want to tab to the combo box to select the DVD drive you've placed the disc into. The program should have selected the drive already and be listed in the combo box, but if it hasn't, then arrow up or down to the drive to select it. Once selected, you tab once and you'll land on the refresh button. If I'm ripping a second DVD after ripping the first, I will press the spacebar on this button, just to make sure the track listing is updated to reflect the new DVD in the tray. You never can be sure with software. Once you do this, tab once and you'll land on the track listing of the DVD. From my experience, I have never seen track listings like Lee has mentioned in his messages for ripping with this program. I have never been able to right arrow to the alternate language, and so find the tracks are listed by language, as opposed as in sections. What I mean by this is, when Jaws speaks out the track number, it will have the language somewhere in the track listing. It will list English, or Francais or Espanol, or some other language in the title of the track. I have never personally seen a DVD with audio description, so I really can't say what an audio description track would look like. Having said that, I would imagine that the title of the track would indicate something other than the language. As another example, I have had DVD movies, like the Fast and the Furious that have had multiple angles to a particular scene, and this, too, is indicated in the track title. It will be listed as Angle 1 or Angle 2 or something along those lines. Suffice it to say, if you look for these language names, you will be given some idea of what language you are selecting. Keep in mind that this is not always the case, as some DVD titles are not authored correctly. During the writing of this tutorial, I used a movie called March of the Penguins. The DVD case comes with two DVD's. Presumably one DVD is the English version, while the second DVD is the French version. One would expect that the English version would have the word English in the track titles, and the French version would have the word Francais, however, this is not the case. The first DVD has only five track listings, and three of them are listed as French titles, and two listed as English. When I slip in the second DVD, again, there are only five track titles, but each of them are listed as French. I have confirmed the one with all the tracks listed as French are indeed the French version of the movie, but the first one, even though it's listed as French, turned out to be the English version, with Morgan Freeman narrating the movie, as usual. Suffice it to say, I am hoping that this is not the case with all of the DVD's one buys. Either way, the program usually does a good job of checking which are the main movie titles, and which are not, and so, if you're just looking to rip the movie proper, you shouldn't have to mess around with the track listings. I'll explain in a bit how you can make sure that the tracks selected are the right ones. If you wish to rip more than just the movie, such as DVD extras and the like, you should arrow down the list of tracks, find out which are checked and

You need these types of programs in other to copy the DVd. The only way around this would be to play the entire DVD on your computer and record it with goldwave or total recorder. That would take a while. If you are interested in these DVD programs, go to slysoft.com. If I can help you any more, let me know.
