To rip audio from Facebook / You Tube follow the steps below:
1. Download the video from Facebook / You Tube.
- For You Tube Videos our own videos can be downloaded from You Tube via Video Manager > Edit > Download MP4.
- For Facebook Videos head here.
- For all other video's head here.
2. Next ensure VLC Player is downloaded. Alternatively use Online Audio Converter.
3. Open the VLC, then Media > Convert/Save.
4. Under the File tab, click Add then browse for the downloaded MP4. It doesn’t have to be a YouTube video – this method will strip the audio from any MP4 video and convert it to an MP3 audio file.
5. Use the Convert/Save button to select Convert, then change the Profile to your preferred output option – normally MP3. 6. If you have problems with the output for MP3, switch to Audio MP3 (MP4), and if necessary change the .mp4 suffix to .mp3 if your MP3 player cannot play the resulting file.
7. You will then need to specify a destination filename and location. Click Browse to specify a directory to save the audio file to – if you don’t, the video won’t be saved, even if you have entered a filename.
8. Click Start, and wait as the audio is ripped from the video and saved in your preferred format.
Once complete, the audio file should be ready for you to listen to or edit!
