Extract audio from a .Dat video

Hi, i'm looking for a software that allows me to extract audio from .dat video file (VCD) if possible to .mp3 ; i'm running Vista x86 too.

Thanks.

 

I've used AoA AudioExtractor in the past and that seems to work OK.

 

that programm crashes on some video, or give 0Kb mp3 files

 

You can convert the .dat to mpeg using VCDGear (freeware) and then use VirtualDub (also freeware) to extract the audio from the mpeg. I don't have a step by step for you, but I know both these apps will do the job. A little bit of online research should help. Both apps have their own web sites with FAQ's and support and maybe forums too.

VCDGear: http://www.vcdgear.com/download.html
Alternatively, you can check this link here for more info on a different method than what I described above:
