Extract audio using QuickTime PlayerĪssuming you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, the version of QuickTime Player that comes with your Mac can help you get the job done.
While there are a bunch of methods you could try, we’re going to focus on two: Lion’s QuickTime Player and a free third-party program called MPEG Streamclip. Whatever the case may be, you can convert pretty much any video file on your Mac to an audio file (as long as it’s not copy protected by DRM).
Or maybe you’ve got a clip of the funniest scene from your favorite movie. Let’s say you’re a parent who took a home movie of your child during a musical performance.
Ever wanted to extract the audio from a movie or video file so you could import it into iTunes or burn it on a CD? There are actually a number of ways to accomplish this task on your Mac!
