Video - audio converter

| Hi g/u/rls
May not be the best place to ask but do you know a software to convert video to audio.
I've always used online converters but an offline one would be way better.




| ffmpeg, not the simplest to use though.


| Ffmpeg is indeed what you need, if you are ready to use the CLI. If you want a simple interface to ffmpeg, I think that there's a free software called Adapter that does it.
Using ffmpeg for simple conversion is relatively easy though. If I'm not mistaken, it's just a matter of typing "ffmpeg -i myvideo.mp4 audiooutput.mp3" (with the actual video input and wanted audio format) and it should do the job. And even if I'm mistaken, there a good amount of help on the internet.


| Yeah, ffmpeg. You can use it with Audacity. If you tell it where ffmpeg is, you will have an interface for importing the video and choosing the audio output format.


| I just use some ffmpeg commands via kde service menues*. For example I prepared some commands to grab audio or video stream from a container, recode audio and video in different formats and merge them into a new container.
*Kde service menues allow to run commands via right-click context menues on selected file(s) in kdes file-manager (dolphin).

ffmpeg. Chances are 90% of generic media converters are just ffmpeg front ends.


| Windows movie maker does then trick for me.
