DVD Ripping software

December 24, 2004 10:02 AM

You want to rip a 60-second (or so) clip from a DVD, substitute the audio with an MP3 of your choosing, and save the result in a format suitable for Internet distribution. What (downloadable, easy-to-learn) software do you use?

On an Apple, I prefer ffmpegx. On a PC you'll want to be usin' Auto Gordian Knot.

Hope this helps...

Heh. Sounds like a game they play every once and awhile on the Something Awful forums, putting inappropriate music/sound over films. Some real gems have come out of that.

The easiest and possibly funniest use the scenes from The Shawshank Redemption or Equilibrium where the main character listens to a record player.
