iMac question:

[opiate69]

Hi.. I just bought an iMac desktop a couple of weeks ago, and I was wondering if any one here could help me figure somethng out.. it came with the iLife suite (itunes, iDVD, iFilm, GarageBand, etc..) what I'd like to do is, swipe about 45 seconds worth of audio from a DVD I have.. can this be done,and if so, how? Thanks.

1. I guess you will have to rip the audio from the DVD

Handbrake will rip DVD movies, I have never tried to rip just the audio.

2. There are shareware programs that will do this

WireTap Pro is your all-purpose digital recording device: with the click of a button, WireTap Pro allows you to record any audio on your Mac. WireTap Pro's simple but powerful interface allows you to record audio from any running applications, as well as from any microphone, line-in, headset, and even your radioSHARK.

Want to record sound snippets from your favorite DVD movie, digitize your old record collection, record streaming audio from the Internet, or even use your iPod as a personal Dictaphone? WireTap Pro is your solution.

These might have trial periods to test, but they're not expensive if they don't.
