Hi Keith, You can do that with mplayer. If you have it installed and can listen to your dvd's, then you can capture the audio with a command that looks a little like this: mplayer -vc dummy -vo null -ao pcm -format 128 -aofile outputname.wav ... You need to add more args to that command, such as a filename, a URL, or the option to access your dvd drive, but the basics for capturing anything that mplayer can play to a wav file called outputname.wav (or anything else you want to call it) are there.
