How do I capture audio snippet from DVD for use on a CD?

[yosarian]

I fequently make mix CD's of songs for my car, my workshop, etc. Sometimes I make multiple copies and share them with friends. I sometimes like to put some funny or appropriate movie dialogue in the beginning, middle or end of the cd. Is there a way I can sample the audio from a DVD directly into my Mac, via an audio tool like Peak without having to run an audio out from a dvd player to the audio in of my Mac?

Not sure about the best way, but here's how I would do it.
Suppose I'd want a few lines audio from a DVD, located on Title 1, Chapter 19. Knowing that, I won't have to rip the whole DVD, but just that one chapter. I would use MPEG Streamclip to make a rough selection and demux to aiff. In Amadeus, or any audio editing app with visual soundwaves, I could make an exact selection. Then I could add that final sound file to my Audio CD compilation.

You could try Audio Hijack.

Second Audio Hijack (pro).
No ripping needed, creates the
mp3 on the fly.

Before someone else chimes in, there is also Wiretap.
;-p

Cool, thanks for the help. I will try that out this weekend and see how it goes.

ditto Audio Hijack. the free downloadable version will allow up to 10 minutes of ripping audio; quality gradually degrades (noise is added) thereafter (of course, the Pro version will remove all that). good luck.

Cinematize does very well in extracting the audio only on a chapter by chapter basis. It will automatically make individual AIFF files for each chapter on a video DVD.
