    Extracting audio from Quicktime 5

    Hello all,
    I am in need of a fast and hassle-free (preferably batch-enabled) way of extracting audio from Quicktime 5 files. I would also like to convert them to MP3s (quicktime audio comression is not as good).
    I would prefer a program that can do batch-processing on entire directories as I have a bunch of lecture video files that I only want to retain the audio from.
    If anyone can recommend anything,
    I'd fgreatly appreciate it.

    Right now I have to: open the file in QT player; "extract audio track"; "save as" the extracted audio track into another .MOV file. This is too time-consuming and I'm hoping for a better way.

    Kind regards,
    Luke

    Alternatively,

    convert mov file to avi (divx preferably file) using the software supplied at divx-digest.com (check software section) and vcdhelp.com (under conversion) or a screen capture software. If all goes well, open the file in virtualdub and then save the audio only. In virtualdub you can select mp3 format for audio if you like. Adobe Premiere might be able to do this (it should be better).
    MOV to AVI conversion is not perfect or always reliable.
