Hey,
You guys are missing the point. If you want to extract the audio from a 3 hour concert video, that can be done in minutes on a good machine with a transcoder, or it can be done in 3 hours with the mplayer -dumpaudio technique.
mplayer -vo null -vc dummy -dumpfile whatever.ext yourfile.ext
The '-vc dummy' is NOT a typo.
huh? are we talking about -dumpaudio or -ao pcm?? -dumpaudio is always as fast as possible, like all the -dump* options, and no decoding ever takes place. i think the user who posted this was confused... rich
