One of the best tips we can give you as a newbie muurrdock is to use the search function..... I did so using your own sentence as the indicators "get a audio fle using dvd2avi" Here are some helpful links for you. Unfortunately most of us are so busy that we can't write individual guides for each question asked. But we can certainly point you in the right direction to find the answers for yourself: http://entiendo.gotnet.net/dvd2avi/dvd2avi.html http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/1/63610#329053 http://www.dvd-audioworld.com/home.htm http://www.audaud.com/audaud/APR04/ http://www.digitalaudioguide.com/
I've used dvd-to-avi. Was wondering how you got a wav file? I say keep it simple, keep default settings. You'll have to play around to get the right screen size. I've used for wide screen set it to 720x288 and for full keep 480x480. for pieces select either n/a or 700mb. if you select n/a you'll get a 900mb file, and 700/200 the other way. for screen size select full you'll be happier this way (makes not difference in output size). But in the end you should end up with an avi file. And as far as codec, I choose DivX, since you can get it for free.
