hi guys whats the best thing or way to capture sounds off a dvd?
how do i go about doing it?
-
I like to use the stereo "line out" from the dvd player to the "line in" on the pc.
Set the scene of the audio you want to record on the dvd player.
Have your line in recording program on the computer set up.
Press play on the dvd player.
Press record on the program.
Let sounds play.
Press stop on the recorder.
Press stop on the dvd player.
If it's a short clip, you can then import it into sound recorder and trim it, then save it in whatever format you need.

I double click my icon in the systray, menu Options > Properties, click the "Recording" option, and make sure it's all enabled.
Turn the sliders up on "what you hear" and unmute it. I think it's that one. I normally have it muted.
Then simply play what you want, and record in whatever you use. Works in Windows Sound Recorder, at least.

doesn't windows sound recorder limit the length of your .wav file?
I have made and saved generic .wav files to diferent lengths because of this limitation........I have the following to use so it does not stop or run out...1 minute all the way thru 10 minutes at 1 minute intervals........
but alos I use a Line6 TonePort2 &/or sometime the line-in on the soundcard with ableton live 6.0, Cubase, pro tools, Adobe audition1.5/(used to be cooledit pro 2 ) to make other sound tracks beyond .wav files....... and can edit slice & dice as I please with them much easier than with sound recorder......the line in is the best way to remove any background noise you might pick up otherwise
there are some free and shareware programs out there also if you look for em

Sound Recorder defaults to 30 seconds. You can keep hitting the record button again to add another 30 seconds to that.
I used to know where the setting was for this. You could specify the default length. Now, I've forgotten (it's been so long). I do know you can set that default. Just don't recall where.

I use this to record music. i think there's a 5 minute or so limit + 16 tracks.
Edit: i didn't know you could use sound recorder for more than 30 seconds, thanks.

Speed55,
I went in an edited my sound recorder file ( .wav file ) and saved them individually, so if I know I got a project I want to do in WAV format I got generic nothing wav files I can open to record to then save as desired.......as mentioned ranging from 1 min to 10 min
as Krusty mentioned there is a way to go in and actually extend it longer, but I made mine the old fashion way of editing & splicing along time ago... you prob could easily google it to find out how to go about setting the default higher......

Thanks TC. I've been using the Kristal Program, which was, and i think still is free.
I found a bunch of old band tapes from about 12 years ago that i wanted to make digital before they got ruined.
