Sometimes we hope to create our tiny music library for collecting our favorite songs, but we maybe consider it as a professional work and don't know which software we should choose, even how to use it. VLC is a good choice to convert MP3 from video. So how to use VLC to extract MP3? Fortunately, it is not too hard to operate. You can follow these steps below to create your MP3.
LVC is one of the frequently used media. But its function of converting media files might be neglected. Not only can it convert any audio format, but also extract audio from video files varying from a wide selection of video formats including MP4, AVI, WMV, 3GP, DIVX, FLV, MOV, ASF, etc. to different audio formats (e.g. MP3). The following steps are easy to follow even if you are the first time to use VLC.
Step 1: Download the VLC media player and launch it. Then select Media > Convert/Save.
Step 2: Next, in the Open Media window, click the Add button to select the video file you want to convert. Then at the bottom of the window, click the drop-down menu and select Convert.
Step 3: In the Convert window, choose Audio – MP3 from the Profile drop-down menu. Then set the Destination. When you are ready, click Start. Now just wait for the video to convert.
Tip: In order to have a qualified converted file, you can change some settings to edit profile. After choosing the profile of Audio—MP3, click "edit selected profile" with the tool icon on the right side. In the Profile edition window, you will see there are four settings: Encapsulation, Video codec, Audio codec and Subtitles. Then based on your personal requirements, select different sections to make changes.
Normally, using VLC by following the above steps is enough to satisfy your needs of converting a video file to MP3. However, as the saying goes, the best horse stumbles.
