converting movie song from DVD to mp3 format

[raj_kshetri]

what is/are the best softwares to
<1>cut a movie song
<2>and then convert it to mp3 format?
CAN ANYONE HELP FRIENDS?

The best method, using only free softwares, I can think of is:
1> First rip the video (or part of it) from the disk to AVI.
2> Then seperate audio from video using Virtualdub
3> Crop the audio in audacity (install lame.dll plugin first) and export to mp3.

All this is a lot of work, so best of luck!

Some guides wich may help with the above steps:

There may be easier methods out there but I am not aware of them.

You may use Goldwave Digital Audio editor. I use it regularly to extract audio from VOB files.

Rip the DVD and load the vob files into the audio editor.Select the audio portion you want to convert.You can directly convert the audio to MP3 if you have the lame encoder also installed.
The trial version of the audio editor has some limitations but I feel you can manage the job if it is just an one-time affair.( I have a fully licensed copy, though prior to purchasing I had used the trial version for many years. The limitations of the trial version could have changed over the years.So you have to try whether you can manage with the present limitations of the trial version)

You may also try the Mediacoder(Audio) which is freeware.The interface is a little daunting but still can be worked out.
