Alright guys, hello and welcome to GEEKcompNERD’s computer zone show. In this tutorial, I’m going to be talking about extracting audio from your video files into a .MP3 file format and this is really useful for those of you who want to extract audio from your favorite music videos and have them converted to .MP3 in order to play on your iPod or MP3 Player or whatever you want.
So, simply head off to a site called vidtomp3.com. So, that’s just spelled V-I-D-T-O-M-P-3.com. So, navigate to that site. And as you can see, this is how it looks. All you do is simply copy the full address of the page with the video. Preferably, I think this video only works with YouTube videos and MySpace videos. So as you can see on top, there’s this ‘Convert YouTube and MySpace videos’. So, I’m not sure, I haven’t tried it with Metacafe and Google video. You can obviously try that out and let us know.
So, what you do is you go to the video that you want to download and extract the MP3 from. So, say I have a music video on YouTube. In this case, I’m just going to search for Dota. It’s one of my favorite songs and I have the music video of Dota from Basshunter and I want to extract only the audio from it and I don’t want the video. All I do simply is go up here and you can see the video URL, right? This is the site address that you want to use. So, what you do is you go to the video you want, go to the top and copy the site address, the URL, go down on this site back and enter the video URL below. So copy and paste it as I said and click on ‘Download’.
Now, the site will start converting the videos as you can see while the conversion is complete, click on ‘Download MP3’. So, it’ll start converting the video format into an .MP3 file for you. And here we have it converting the video as you can see showing you the progress right down there. And I’m just going to pause the video and click back once it’s finished. Alright and there we have it. It’s just about finished converting the video to an .MP3. And here on the corner as you can see now, it just comes up with the link ‘Download MP3’. So, you just click on ‘Download MP3’ and it should come up with this page now, like this. And all it’s going to give you is a button to download the MP3. You can share the MP3 with your friends by just giving them the link to this page and you can actually preview your MP3 by just clicking on this little ‘Play’ button here and it’ll start playing the MP3, e-mail the link, report this MP3 if it doesn’t work, view the source for the MP3 and all we’re actually going to do is click on ‘Download MP3’ and it’s going to come up by saying ‘Save The File’ and you click on ‘OK’ and the download will start and it’s finished.
So, all we do now is open it up and what we’re going to have is sorry about that, is the file that we downloaded. So, here’s the file that we just downloaded and you can just rename it to whatever you want, say, Dota, because we downloaded too and there you have your MP3 file converted from a video file into an MP3. So use it however you want. I hope this video helped you, for those of you music video lovers and, once again, thanks for watching.
