i prefer extracting sound from vobs via vob2audio to wav and then i use wavelab for further 'enhancement'.

it definitely sounds better to me than besweet/azid/lame created audio!

The quality is superb, unbeatable (in my opinion anyway)

i think vob2audio is good
but it isnt good for creating mp3 with it right?
is wave lab good for lowering quality ( iam right now making 20 min anime around 70mb mark)

I use DVD2AVI to extract *.ac3 file. Then i use BeSweetGUI to convert .ac3 to mp3. Thats take a little bit long but the result is excelent. After that i use SoundForge to amplify the volume.
Till yesterday GoldWave was the volume amplifyer program for me...but ....something strage happening with GoldWave: my mp3 file was 122 minutes long....but GoldWave open that file only 155 minutes long....so no sound for the last 7 minutes for my movie.So, i swich to SoundForge.

Shion, i doono what's happening with GoldWave. Try to use SoudForge XP. Is great and more important....works directly on mp3 format like Goldwave

Shion, the mp3 file will be short in GoldWave imediately after the file was loaded in GoldWave...not even the volume was amplyfied.

Most audio editting programs can be downloaded off www.downloads.com

p.s. Most of them are shareware though...

Uncas.. how do you recompress your sound afterwards ?!

i let vob2audio extract to wave because i want to increase the volume by some 3db and i (due to routine and for hardly any good reason) downsample to 44.1khz.

all this is being done in wavelab and thats where i finally save to mp3.

i have run MANY tests as to which mp3 sounds better for me and so far i consider this way the best for my taste!

i have fine dolby surround 2.0 with a powerfull (due to normalizing and amplification) sound.
