Video to Audio CD Guide -2 |
|
| |
|
|
| This guide covers how to simply copy a extract
the audio from a video DVD to a audio CD. The resulting quality
should be excellent, almost as good as the original DVD sound
quality. The tools you will need installed are: |
| |
iSofter
DVD Audio Ripper deluxe 1.20 (no longer being developed for
legal reasons, but can still be downloaded)
Nero 6 Burning ROM
Nero 2-Channel AC3 Input Plug-In (install after you have installed
Nero 6) |
| |
|
|
| Part 2: Burning to CD with Nero Burning
ROM |
| |
| 1. Start Nero Burning ROM, it will say "New
Compilation", select "Audio CD". Then under
the tab "Audio CD" uncheck "Write CD TEXT on
CD". then click "New". |
| |
|
| |
| 2. Go to "Edit" then select "Add
files". |
| |
|
| |
| 3.a). Browse to where you selected the output
files to go in iSofer DVD Audio Ripper deluxe, and then select
all the AC3 files in there by pressing CTRL+A. Then press
"Add". Once it has added them press "Finished".
|
| |
|
| |
| 3. b). If you add the files and they are over
80 minutes in total (many live concert DVDs etc are) then
you will have to split it across 2 CDs, simply hold CTRL and
select half the tracks, and add those. Then continue, once
you have made the first disk (as done below) do the same again
for the other half of the tracks. |
| |
| and after the first half has been completed
and burnt... |
| |
| 4. Go to "Edit" then select "Select
All" (or just press CTRL+A again). |
| |
| 5. Then go to "Edit" and click "Properties".
. |
|
| 6. Click on the "Track Properties"
tab. Unless you wish for 2 second silence gaps between each
track, set the "Pause" to 0 seconds. |
| |
|
| |
| 7. Now click on the "Filters" tab.
Check the "Normalise" box, then and take it from
RMS, to "Maximum", then set the Maximum percent
to 98%. This is done as many DVDs have very quiet audio compared
to audio CDs, and maximisation will bring it up to a good
volume. Once done, press "OK". |
| |
| 8. Once done select the burner you wish to burn
with. |
| |
| 9. Then go to "Recorder" and click
"Burn Compilation". |
| |
| 10. a).Set the write speed you want, lower will
produce a better result. Make sure it is burning on "Disc-at-Once"
mode. Then click "Burn". |
| |
|
| |
| 10. b). You MAY get this message when you start
to burn, especially if you are burning with a DVD or older
CD burner. if you do just click ok. All it will mean that
the 2 second silence gaps will have to be inserted between
tracks. If you really don't want this your only option is
to try using another burner until you get one that doesn't
give this message. |
| |
| 11. It will then start burning, it will start
by saying "Calculating [file name]" this is just
it working out the volume to set each track to. It will then
burn the CD to the blank disk. |
| |
| 12. One it has complete the burn click "OK"
it should then have automaticly ejected your CD. |
| |
| 13. Then click done and exit Nero. |
| |
| 14. Try your CD! |
| |
| Good luck, and feel free to PM/email me if you
have any problems/suggestions. |
