+It's not possible directly, but you can try this:
+<screen>
+    mkfifo encode
+    mplayer -ao pcm -aofile encode dvd://1 &amp;
+    lame <replaceable>your_opts</replaceable> encode music.mp3
+    rm encode
+</screen>
+It allows you to use any encoder, not only <application>LAME</application>,
+just replace it with your favorite audio encoder in the above command.
