I've found that VLC often inserts audio glitches. I ended up using QuickTime Pro to convert FLV to audio-only MP4s for iTunes. In QT Pro 7.6 for the Mac it works like this: Open the FLV file in QT. File > Export > Export: Sound to AIFF > Save (takes only 10 secs to convert a 5 min song). Close QT. Now open the .AIF file in QT. File > Export > Export: Movie to MPEG-4 > Save (takes 10 secs). That's it.
I converted about 50 songs like this three or four months ago, but now when I do it the new created file just makes an annoying electronic/white noise sound. Can anyone help?
he does not talk too fast... he might talk to fast for YOU... when i was listening to him i simply listened to a bit of what he was saying then paused, did what he told me to do... listened and paused etc... everything worked first time. Good upload I think UniqueSingularity
Wow, I never knew VLC had a convertor. I've used VLC for years now. LoL thx for letting me know about that feature. I'm currently using v1.1.7. you can just convert without creating profiles. and it converts to all types of extensions.
Great vid. I found a faster way to do it, tho. If you're using the Real Player option to download the videos, all you have to do is, in Real Player, right click on the video, select "Convert to..." and in the conversion options select "MP3 audio only", choose your destination for the MP3 file, then hit "Convert". It takes maybe 10 seconds. Enjoy.
P.S: To the uploader, I'm not trying to 1up you or anything, I just thought I'd share an alternative option.
By the way, thank you for showing me how to do this, I've have VLC for a while and never even knew it had converting options. Great vid, thanks for the info
This works, THANK YOU for the time and effort you took to help bunch of unknown people! (All you complaining SHITHEAD DIMWITS, go figure it out yourselves!)
@UniqueSingularity Thanks man it really helped out alot and i mostly use VLC anyway just didn't know how to convert music until this video so again thanks.
You can change the bitrate, yes. Your file size will be larger but it'll sound better. Be aware, you can't name your file anything with a apostrophe. "david.mp3" will convert, "david's.mp3" will not. Might have the same problem with a parenthesis or other symbols but I haven't tried it. If you have one in the title and it won't export to mp3, that's probably why. Just rename the file with your symbol included after the conversion.
Not everyone is as stupid as you and only need the basic information. It also makes the video shorter and faster. So yeah, if it's "Way too fast" then how about you make your own video? Jesus, he's just trying to be helpful.
VLC is my favourite media player for awhile now, it's simply perfect for videos, codecs work like a charm, music can go 2x louder. If only it had a better way to display a library of media, I'd dicth media player for mp3 playing.
I had no clue VLC could do this as well. Overkill much. <3
For those having problems. I use Internet Download Manager, im sure there's other download managers that will allow video downloading. Also for VLC, get the latest version and just use the convert to MP3 profile. Don't have to change setting manually. (make sure the 'destination' file still has .mp3 at the end) Hope this helps!
this doesnt work.... hav done EXACTLY what is done in the tutorial and it doesnt create an mp3 file..... no to mention there is already an AUDIO-MP3 setting in VLC already.
Cant you just find the right file in your temporary internet files by finding the biggest most recent file and changing the file extension to .flv? And if I knew you could convert audio in VLC I would have done it ages ago :(
thanks man i'm doing this with linux and they don't really have 34100 but i chose the other closest number, and guess what it takes a little while but it works :)
@MattAndi Unfortuneately the bookmark for Chrome no longer works, I am unsure as to why but you can no longer download videos with it, I suggest either finding an addon for Chrome that can do it, or use "Download Helper" for Mozilla Firefox to do so, the rest of the video will work the same.

long may men like you live in our memories and forever be hailed as Legends amongst men.
I wish to one day decorate you in a fitting manner, by having you sat on a golden throne clutching a Golden diamond studded sceptor surrounded by beautiful ethnic virgin females from the asian sub-continent fanning you and offering grapes from a silver tray and combing our long hair. That is, if you're not wearing the crown !
It took me a day to figure it out. I overlooked the part where you scrolled down and selected the (new profile) towards the end, before clicking 'Start'.
