AC3 to CD

I've got some concert videos on DVD that I have been thinking of extracting the audio and burning to a CD.  Is it as simple as converting the AC3 audio to a wav file and burning it?  Or is there some more elaborate process I ought to follow?

You'll need to resample it from 48kHz to 44.1kHz.

When I've done this in the past I've demuxed the audio by ripping with DVD Decrypter.  Then I convert the AC3 to WAV using BeSweet.  Then resample the WAV.  Can't remember if BeSweet does this or if I used SoundForge....

 

Anyway, for splitting tracks on sector boundaries (to avoid clicking), nothing is easier than CDWave.

 

Good luck.

Ugh.  Missing buttons (in IE6) resulted in the duplicate post.  At least Quick Edit has the buttons...
