like say I take a video from a game using fraps how do I make it just into sound?

you gotta split it. the sound is already therre, you just need a program to spilt it.

do you know any good programs for that?

and any of you know of any good programs (better than fraps) i can use to save (capture) parts of a dvd movie (fraps seems to work better with games)?

You could just use TMPGEnc to rip the audio.

Maybe http://www.virtualdub.org/ for the movie.

TMPGenc costs money IIRC (at least it did last time I looked). VirtualDub should be able to do it for free. Take a look at the guides here:

There should be something. Maybe even use Windows Movie Maker, and save the audio channel of your clip separately, though you'd be stuck with WMA.

Capture in what format? DVDShrink can make an ISO of a DVD9 disk to fit on a DVD5 blank. Or, there's a procedure for converting .vob files to AVI over at Afterdawn.

no just capture parts of it and put it on my computer or put it on a website for example later.

Id like to capture a dvd movie (part of it) in windows media player or avi format, fraps only captures part of it than stops all of a sudden for some reason and I couldnt get that other program to work phonix recommended.

Sorry, why are you encouraging Strangler to make illegal copies of sound clips from "Fist of Fury 3 - Prison Fist" available to an impressionable public?

I have really two questions, one is the sound and another for any program that lets me press a button and start capturing video of a dvd playing on window media player for example.

The answers are;

1) rip the DVD

and

2) rip the DVD

But please don't, you might get sent to jail or something.

how?

every time I use something like windoes movie maker it says the format is not supported and it wont open my dvd.

http://www.doom9.org has some good links and tutorials - then there's the one seremtan's already posted, did you read any of those?

1) the reason Fraps keeps stopping for you is you're using the unregistered version, which will only capture 30secs at a time (and in any case, Fraps really isn't ideal for movie capture anyway - it's more suitable for making game clips and software video tutes).

2) the tute laid out here -

- is the best way that I know for turning DVD into something that can cut up, split, embedded in a web page and generally fucked about with. You can perhaps try to just convert a single VOB file rather than the whole lot but I'm not sure how that's done. Also, if the DVD in question is encrypted, you'll need to use DVD Decrypter instead of SmartRipper to rip it. For post production stuff (i.e. after Virtual Dub has done its magic) I found Edit Studio 4 pretty handy, but other people have recommended Adobe Premiere, so take your pick.
