I’ve been searching for weeks for a way to get soundbites out of movie files. I vaguely recalled that DivX Tool (or a newer beta) would extract the soundtrack as a mp3, but I didn’t know of an easy way to work with the results. (By the way, DivX Tool will refuse to open a write-protected file, sometimes silently.) It sounded like I might have to use something complicated like mAC3dec with LAME. Instead, all my problems were solved when I stumbled across a little shareware tool called MP3 Trimmer.
My first soundbites are up in the Repository under GDO and Teal’c.
