[0:00] in this video I'm going to show you how
[0:02] to extract audio from video and we are
[0:05] going to use audacity which is a free
[0:07] and open-source software and probably
[0:10] the best for manipulating audio and
[0:13] videos normally it is considered as an
[0:15] audio tool but if you want to separate
[0:17] only audio from a video you can also do
[0:20] that in audacity why you want to do that
[0:22] that I will explain at the end of this
[0:24] video because you clicked on this video
[0:26] because you want to know how to extract
[0:28] audio from video so first I explain this
[0:30] and then I will show you what could be
[0:32] the reasons why you might want to do
[0:34] that so without further Ado let's get
[0:36] started after a short
[0:38] [Music]
[0:44] break hello and welcome to my channel my
[0:47] name is Tahir and I make videos about
[0:49] various applications and software mostly
[0:52] about educational technology so I would
[0:54] highly appreciate if you hit the
[0:55] Subscribe button and also the
[0:57] notification Bell to get notified
[0:59] whenever I post a video on this channel
[1:01] I hope that you already know about
[1:03] audacity and you have installed this on
[1:06] your computer if not you can simply type
[1:08] audacity in Google and you will reach on
[1:11] this website and you can download
[1:13] Audacity now I have opened this software
[1:16] and this is my file explorer in which I
[1:19] have one video as an example and
[1:22] extracting audio from this video is very
[1:25] simple in audacity you simply drag and
[1:28] drop in this area if you have recently
[1:31] installed audacity then you will see
[1:33] this message and what this message is
[1:35] saying is that you have to add a library
[1:38] to audacity in order for you to extract
[1:41] audio from a video and that library is
[1:44] called FFM Peg and the message is saying
[1:47] that without FFM Peg audacity is unable
[1:51] to open this file and if you have
[1:53] installed that library then you will
[1:56] simply get the audio opened in this
[1:58] audacity which you can export as an MP3
[2:01] file and you are done so it's a very
[2:04] simple process you simply have to drag
[2:06] and drop your video and you will get the
[2:08] audio now let's see how you can install
[2:10] FFM Peg and we don't want to install
[2:12] from a spammy website so let us ask Odes
[2:16] from where should we install this
[2:18] library now what I need to do is I click
[2:20] on edit and at the very end we have this
[2:23] preferences I click on that and on the
[2:26] left hand side I have to click on this
[2:28] libraries and I can see this message FFM
[2:32] Peg Library not found and then there are
[2:34] two buttons locate and download so we
[2:38] should first click on this download so
[2:40] that we only go to the authentic website
[2:43] so I click on this download and it will
[2:46] open this page on this page I click on
[2:49] installing FFM Peg and now we are on
[2:52] Audacity website on this website there
[2:55] is a link lame. bueno. org and because
[2:59] this link link is on Audacity website so
[3:01] we can trust this link so I click on
[3:04] that and I reach on this page and my
[3:06] operating system is Windows so I am
[3:08] using audacity on PC so I click on this
[3:12] 64bit windows and then you save this on
[3:15] any convenient location so I'm saving
[3:18] this on my desktop and it will just take
[3:21] few seconds and now I get this file on
[3:24] my desktop I click on that accept the
[3:27] licensing terms click next and click
[3:30] install and finally finish installation
[3:33] and after the installation when I open
[3:35] my Odes and I try to put my
[3:42] video let us close this as you can see
[3:45] that I directly got the audio extracted
[3:48] from my video and if you don't see this
[3:51] and you have some problem I'm going to
[3:53] show you how you can solve that problem
[3:55] because some users they will see that
[3:58] FFM Peg is is still not found so I'm
[4:01] going to show you in a minute but in my
[4:03] case it automatically detected this and
[4:05] now what I can do is I got this audio
[4:08] from my video and I want to save this as
[4:11] an MP3 file as an audio file to do that
[4:14] I click on file and then I click on
[4:18] export and on the right hand side I can
[4:20] export as MP3 file web file WAV file or
[4:24] I can also export audio or I can also
[4:27] export audio so these are the three
[4:29] three different options so I want to
[4:31] export as an MP3 file so I click on that
[4:36] and I can change the name if I want
[4:38] otherwise it will be saved in the same
[4:39] folder with MP3 file simply click save
[4:43] and click okay and you will see this
[4:45] progress bar and within few second the
[4:48] audio file will be saved so let us see
[4:50] if you don't get this audio straight
[4:53] away and you see the same message that
[4:56] we got in the beginning of this video so
[4:58] let me open this again as you can see
[5:00] that in my case the library is there and
[5:04] there is a library version but if you
[5:06] see any error here Library could not be
[5:08] found then now you have to click on
[5:11] locate previously we clicked on download
[5:13] now we click on locate you will not see
[5:16] this message because it says that you
[5:18] want to locate again so I click yes and
[5:21] you will only see this area where you
[5:23] can browse so you click on browse the
[5:27] file will be in your program files
[5:30] directory which is normally in C
[5:33] directory and in this program files
[5:35] directory you will look for a folder FFM
[5:38] Peg for audacity so this is the folder
[5:41] you click on that and as you can see
[5:43] here that by default that the software
[5:46] is expecting this type of file and we
[5:49] have this file in this folder you click
[5:52] on that and you click on open and this
[5:55] will solve your problem I'm going to
[5:57] cancel this now what if this also does
[5:59] not solve your problem then remember one
[6:02] thing that whenever you are using any
[6:04] open- Source software and you are facing
[6:06] some errors which you should not face
[6:09] the best solution is that you reinstall
[6:12] the software so when the first time I Ed
[6:15] this Library it did not work even after
[6:18] I located properly I downloaded
[6:20] installed everything but then I
[6:22] uninstalled audacity and reinstalled and
[6:25] it worked it automatically detected my
[6:28] FFM Peg and and everything worked fine
[6:31] so this is how you can install this
[6:33] library and now you simply drag and drop
[6:35] and get the audio from a video now we
[6:38] come to the important question what are
[6:40] some of the reasons why you would like
[6:43] to extract audio from a video I have
[6:46] listed this on this screen you can pause
[6:48] the video and you can note but basically
[6:51] sometimes you only want audio not the
[6:54] video for example you want to create a
[6:56] podcast from any video because nowadays
[6:58] many YouTube they are making podcast
[7:01] from their videos as well and putting on
[7:03] various platforms to get some extra
[7:05] income sometimes you want to get the
[7:07] transcript of the video and sometimes
[7:10] you want to translate that transcript so
[7:12] you need to get the transcript first in
[7:14] your original language then you
[7:16] translate it into any other language so
[7:18] you can translate the text obtained from
[7:20] the audio and sometimes you want to get
[7:23] the subtitles so there is a difference
[7:25] between a simple transcript and the
[7:27] subtitle and the difference is that in
[7:29] subtitles you also get the time stamp
[7:32] when you speak something so why we want
[7:35] subtitles because in order to extend
[7:38] your audience for example if you are a
[7:40] YouTuber like myself I sometimes upload
[7:43] subtitles in more than one languages on
[7:46] my videos now the final and most
[7:48] important reason that I am considering
[7:50] right now about my videos is that I want
[7:53] to dub my videos in other languages to
[7:56] grow my audience and if you want to dub
[7:58] then you first have to get the subtitles
[8:00] in original language in my case it is
[8:02] English then I will translate that to
[8:06] any other language for example Hindi and
[8:08] then I will use a text to speech
[8:11] software to convert that subtitle to
[8:14] audio and then I will put that audio
[8:17] track in my video and that can be done
[8:19] in any video editing software so I will
[8:22] be making separate videos for these
[8:24] steps if you are interested in how to
[8:26] dub your videos or how to translate your
[8:29] transcript and what are the issues
[8:31] involved in that then you should
[8:33] subscribe to my channel and wait for the
[8:35] next videos we are expecting that soon
[8:37] YouTube will allow us to add more than
[8:40] one audio tracks to our videos and when
[8:43] someone from some other language will
[8:45] try to watch our video the audio of the
[8:48] video will be played in that particular
[8:50] language and that would be fantastic and
[8:53] that will help us grow our audience and
[8:55] we are looking forward to YouTube to
[8:57] allow us to add more than one audio
[9:00] tracks to our videos with this I end
[9:02] this video thanks for watching and see
[9:04] you next time
