If it was me I would rip the VOB files off the DVD then use AC3decode to extract the wav file, but, that would probably be the hard way :)

You'll need to run Goldwave and PowerDVD at the same time:

1. Start Goldwave and choose the recording time of the wav you want to make. A small box should be there, or pop-up - that looks a recorder/mixer. You'll see the buttons on it - play, record, etc... You may have to change some settings in this panel if you don't get any sound to record... I just set it on "What-U-Hear."

2. Start PowerDVD and play the disk - put in near the point you want to record...

3. Go back to Goldwave and hit the record button on that little pop-up mixer... If it's recording, then you should see waves moving in the mixer's twin-windows...

4. After you've got what you want, stop recording and the wav should show up on the main screen. If you install the plug-in(MP3) from that site I gave you, then you can save the file as a .MP3...

Goldwave isn't free, and it has a limit on it.... Good luck.

Well on my machine ripping the vobs take less than 10 minutes and ripping the audio to a WAV file takes about 15 minutes I don't know where you got the 24 hour number from :)
