Isolating Audio From Video
« on: June 14, 2005, 12:40:17 AM »
I'm looking to isolate audio sound from video to record some themes.  Any ideas on a good way to do this?  I'm in particular looking to record the theme from "Trato Hecho."

What you're looking for is a demultiplexer.  The url below should give you a start.

If none of the choices there float your boat, just throw demultiplexer into google and you'll get something.

I do that my simply setting my your computer's Recording Properties to record "Wave Out Mix"  and recording the audio with Cool Edit 96 as the file plays. That's how I isolated the currently floating around clean segment of the  closing to WoF '95.

I've done that before using Sound Recorder and it works quite well (obviously you would end up with a .wav quality file).

It works okay. As an audiophile, I would circumcise myself with a rusty butter knife before sending audio I wanted to archive through another D/A conversion. But, as an audiophile, I would never consider something pulled off of a taped broadcast of a game show to be archivable. If you're happy doing that, I suppose it would be an allright way to do it, because the audio quality isn't gonna be anywhere near CD-quality, anyhow.

The way I usually do it is to use Graphedit to see how the video file is demuxed natively and then figure out where to use a dump filter on the audio, which usually results in an unsigned WAV that I can shoot through GoldWave for trimming and conversion to whatever format I ultimately want it in. But I realize this is a fairly advanced way to go about it.

(And if this didn't make sense, don't email me asking for a step-by-step, because I'm not gonna do it. I will, however, offer the following URL: http://www.apecity.com/tivo/, which is what I used to learn Graphedit and extrapolated the knowledge gained therein to figure out how to do this.)
