How to extract video’s background music and make it into cellphone ring?

[amulewong]

I have a video file, I love the background music very much and wish to use it as cellphone ring. But the problem is, I don’t know its name, so can’t download it directly. Now I hope to extract the background music and cut out part of it as cellphone ring. Could someone know which software can make it? By the way, my cellphone supports mp3 format as ring.
many thanks

AudioHijack (Pro if you want it).

many software can extract audio file, but it depends on your video format

You don't actually extract audio with this program. All it does is make an .mp3 file out of whatever is playing on the computer speakers. You can record anything you like.

There’re few software that support swf. u may want to try Video Convert for Mac (not free, but u can download and try it for free), it supports to convert audio in swf file to mp3 format.

thanks gauchogolfer, i'll try your suggestion.

thanks lilyly, that program sounds great.
but i have another problem, i just need part of it as ring, could this Video Converter for mac support splitting file? I don't want to use 2 or more programs to make it, u know, that's too troublesome

Video Convert for Mac can split file by setting Duration and Start Time, but this function is unavailable in trial version.
