Hi, I’m not a podcaster, but a guest. I recently was scheduled to have a zoom meeting with a podcaster to record for an upcoming episode. They had a family emergency but asked me to do a “Take Over” and record on my own and gave me some instructions.
I recorded on zoom (video off as it was for audio anyway) and sent them the file, but it’s mp4 and they asked if I could convert it to mp3.
(I’m a 56yo woman and not real computer savvy)
I said I’d try & I have, with no luck. Can any give me some instructions?
Can someone recommend a free program to do MP4 to MP3 conversions? Basically it's needed because the player is old (physical). Anything open source worth looking into? Thank you!
Is there any trusted sites that people use to convert an mp4 to an mp3 or if possible to a flac file. I have a song that i could only find the video to and its in mp4 but im trying to make it into a music file that my player can read like mp3 or flac
Seems like handbrake doesn't have an audio only output option anymore.
I want to convert a bunch of videos to audio, don't care about tons of quality
settings, etc. These are just lectures. Just looking for quick and easy.
(this would be in win10)
I heard Mediahuman is good for this but all im seeing on youtube is tutorials for copy and pasting a youtube link to convert it straight to a MP3 file, which is cool, but i want to be able to convert what i already have downloaded instead of converting one by one. Also most of the tutorials i see have a bunch of downvotes so im just looking for an option i am certain about. Thank you !~
Looking for an Mp4 to Mp3 converter that will convert files over 1GB for free. Any help?
I can't find a single, current one!
Have you guys made something like that? Stacher is a class act btw. The UI and UX is pretty fantastic. Like you guys have set up a quality standard for every other thing to follow. Kudos to the devs, you guys are the real deal!

Does anybody have any websites that can convert a 6 hour long video into audio for free??
Does anyone know a good program to do this, or a website?

Convert mp4 to mp3

Downsize the filesize, removing video data, so it is only an audio file.
Just changing the file extensions doesn't change the filesize and the video data is still there. There is probably a website that does this sort of service, but is like going through a jungle, because of all the pop-ups and possible malware.
I have a 32 hour long MP4 audio recording that's about 5 GB and want to convert it to MP3. It's a looped audio that I want to get on a USB. I have the 30 minute audio MP3 version that I was able to loop on GarageBand, but the max is 12 hours. So my other alternative is to convert the 32 hour MP4 audio to MP3, but every website I've found so far has a 2 GB limit or premium access only.
NOTE: The MP3 File would have an embedded cover art generated from its MP4 File
Hey, so I was looking for things to covert stuff with so I can add stuff I want on spotify through local files. I found that app and have used it, and I was wondering is it safe? Like can I get a virus through downloading stuff through it? Sorry if I sound like a moron, I just wanted to be safe.
here’s the app link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/video-converter-mp4-to-mp3/id1360141190
I recently started gathering large amounts of videos from YouTube music channels, but I've only been able to download them as MP4s. I have been using the Youtube-dl Python script that grabs videos from a given link and downloads it via cmd. I'm running Windows 8.1 by the way.
What I'm looking for is either a way to set Youtube-dl to download MP3s or a tools I can use to convert MP4s to MP3s in large quantities. Thanks in advance.
Is there a program that I can just import all the MP3's into so they can be converted? Instead of doing them one by one, like a huge queue ?
I've been searching a long time for a free app to do this, i have over 1000 videos to convert so i can't bother with the apps that let you convert a set amount (Ex: can only convert one at a time and have to insert files every time, OR "you can only convert 50 files in this free version")
so what i want this:
Free
Unlimited/ Very high number of converts at a time
Not a free trial app
No audio watermark
Hope something like this exists
Edit: Thanks to u/001Guy001 and his Pazera app, works like a charm!
I have around a hundred mp4 files that I only want the mp3 of, any way I can do it at once?
Hello, I wanted to know if there's an exisiting command line for doing MP4 to MP3 Converter in a Batch Process while retaining the MP4's original filename as it turns into a MP3 file.
Thanks for comments and your help.
Before doing this you should know that you'll get better sound quality (as well as being quicker) if you just copy out the existing audio and remux it into a a suitable container, rather than converting the audio which always causes sound quality to deteriorate due to the way these lossy codecs discard data with each encode.
The AAC audio format (usual in MP4s) is more efficient than MP3 so sounds better at lower bitrates, as well as having fewer problem samples and artifacts -- it was designed to replace MP3 by fixing some of the flaws in the older format, and has the full industry backing of everyone that matters as well as being several International Standards, so it's widely supported on pretty much every device from the last 15-20 years.
for f in *.mp4 ; do ffmpeg -i "${f}" -vn -c:a copy -ac 2 "${f%.*}.m4a" ; doneWill convert a whole directory (and work if there are spaces in any file names) in a bash-like shell on any platform.
Or on Windows in PowerShell:
Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Filter *.mp4| ForEach -Process {ffmpeg -i ($_.DirectoryName + '/' + $_) -vn -c:a copy ('./'$_.DirectoryName + '/' + $_.BaseName + '.m4a')}
If you really do want to degrade the audio and choose mp3 for maximum compatibility, just change -c:a copy to -c:a libmp3lame -q:a 0 but I would encourage you to at least test that the copying the AAC audio in .m4a container works on your device before releasing more degraded lossy transcodes in to the world.
For batch processing I would generally include the ffmpeg statement in a for loop. Something like the following command
for FILE in *.mp4; ffmpeg $FILE .... ${FILE#. *}.mp3
Where ${FILE#. *}.mp3 replaces the mp4 to mp3 in he filename and the the loop goes through every mp4 file in the directory
I would just note that this method should work on Linux and Mac OS systems, but for windows you might need to try and find the equivalent operations
