@WellMannered: for example, I found a song on Youtube that I can’t find anywhere else, but it couldn’t be burnt to an audio cd in its existing format.
Another purpose would be to extract the audio from a live concert dvd that you might want to enjoy on your iPod or on your car stereo etc. etc. the list goes on and on.

#28 I use IE 8 and frequently get the 502 error when trying to download, including the web content too, it’s just the roll of the dice whether it works or not. Without knowing the GAOTD server-side infrastructure it is pointless us trying to devise workarounds for what is essentially an infrastructure fault with the GAOTD server hosting company and GAOTD technical admins.

For those getting 502 Bad Gateway page when dl’ing the giveaway, try another browser. I been using Firefox with no problen till today’s giveaway, and all of a sudden the 502 error. I then tried IE8, and it downloaded no problem. I also tried posting this message using FF, and got the 502 erroe, so I’ll try with IE now.

For those who are getting a “502 Bad Gateway” error, try downloading the Giveaway from another browser. Today’s Giveaway keeps giving me the error message when I use Firefox to download (which I have been using with no problem). I then tried IE, and it downloaded. I then tried again with FF, still the error page.

I just upgraded firefox and I got the bad gateway message also. Usually, I right click and use Download with DAP (download accelerator) but this time it couldn’t resolve the file. I used Opera and when I clicked on the link, DAP started up and is downloading now. So what’s up with this gateway message?

Little known factoid.

Audacity will rip Audio from video files and export them just like this will. The only trick is that you have to open Audacity first and THEN open a video file from Audacities menu. If you try to open a Video file using Audacity from the right click menu (or “open With”)it will usually crash Audacity.

Old school freeware wins again.

I just have a question about this program.

I understand very well what the program actually does, but I’m curious as to what people do with audio from videos? What do you guys use the audio files for? I know it can be used to fix audio files which may be corrupt within a video but other than that, I don’t know what it would be used for.

I’m just curious since many of you use it, or programs that are similar.
Thanks for any input!
