DVD Audio Ripping

Is there a way I can use VLC to create an audio file out of a DVD? If so, what is the procedure? I tried searching the forum but I couldn't find anything. When I try to create an audio file, it never plays.

Use virtualdubmod and demuc the right audio track (Streams -> Stream list and demux). You can also transcode audio only with VLC, but I am not sure how.

By shutting off the video in preferences.

A .cmd file will do the ripping for you:

"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\VLC.exe" %1 :no-sout-video :sout=#transcode{acodec=mp3,ab=256,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=raw,dst="%~dpn1.mp3"} } vlc:quit

Just save a track from the dvd as an mpg file and drop it on the .cmd file above to make a 256mbps mp3 file. Or if you know the track number from the dvd just replace %1 with for example dvdsimple://D:@1 (if your dvd was in drive D and you wanted to rip track number 1 as audio only). You'll also need to replace %~dpn1.mp3 with the exact file name you want to create.
