I tried using DVD Audio Ripper to rip audio from the DVD of Dido Live at Brixton Academy. The set includes an audio CD, but not all the songs are included. The sound quality was terrible. When I opened the files in Goldwave, it appeared that they exceeded my sound card's capacity to play them, all though the DVD sounds fine if I just play it on my PC. The sound is clipped and distorted at its highest levels (which is most of each track.) Is there a better tool I should be using? Is there a way to preset the recording level?
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

You can extract just the audio using dvd decrypter in stream processing mode. Then you can use besweet to convert it to wav or mp3 or whatever you need.

When you used dvd audio extractor did you mess with any of the settings ?
It has alot of settings depending on what you want to do & formats.
Did you check "normalization" which at it's highest level when turned on would cause "clipping".
Did you try and burn the music to a cd and see what it suond's like in a standalone player ?
I have used dvd audio extractor on many many concert dvd's to make audio cd's (and movie's) and have never had a problem, they always sound great -

It takes a bit of time to get used to doing it but it WILL give you better results.
The guides are your friend. -

It will let you rip by chapter, raw audio tracks, DTS to 6 single wav files, 5.1 to single wav files, DTS/5.1 to stereo wav's, mp3's, ogg, ect. it will even let you rip right to an image and cue to burn back to a cd-r
This program is well worth it 8) -

If you have 16 songs(or chapters) in a concert DVD....DVDDecrypter will give you exactly 16 AC3 audio files....nothing more and nothing less. Once the AC3 files are in the folder of your choice Ciler's AC3Tool takes care of the AC3 to .WAV process and allows you to do things like increase the volume level....etc etc etc.
I love one-click software as much as the next guy but as aften as most people rip concert DVD's in order to create audio CD's (which I think is not too often)...more software is not necessary. -
OK, I used DVD Decrypter, selected IFO, Stream Processing, and selected the audio 2.0ch English channel. I also selected the Demux radio button. But it still outputs .vob files. Is there a decent guide for using these programs? I just want to use them to extract audio and eventually convert it to .wav files.

Ok I tried doing the same thing since its been awhile since I've done it myself.
Here's a guide:
http://www.doom9.org/index.html?/dvddec.htm
What I finally realized what the problem was is that you have to select EVERYTHING to get a ac3 file. If you select JUST the audio track it spits out a vob. But if you select EVERYTHING in the streamprocessing window you will get a vob AND an ac3 file.
Here is what I mean:

Keep practicing :P
Because i use DVD Decrypter all the time to get JUST the ac3, DTS, video with NO audio, ect, stream with no VOB....
It makes an IFO file but you dont need it....
You want to only have ONLY the part you want checked.... not "everything".
what you end up with......
1 IFO file, 1 Stream Information.txt, & 1 .ac3 file,
and you can delete everything but the .ac3 file as you wont need them...
But DVD Audio Extractor is still the easiest and fastest way to get them into whatever format you need for editing or converting

And I also never said that your beloved DVD Audio Extractor was complete garbage and unnecessary software either. The original poster mentioned DVD Audio Ripper by name....the same software I tried and it completely sucked. One can only assume however that he meant #1 DVD Audio Ripper/Extractor....whatever...which to those of us who have tried it are one and the same....junk.
Have a nice day.... -
I did mean #1 DVD Audio Ripper, and I agree, it is junk. Don't know anything about DVD Audio Extractor.
