  3. Click Advanced
  4. Check “Allow upgrade to large tables”.
  5. Click Ok

  3. Click Media (up-the-top)
  4. Click Convert/Save

  6. Make sure the DVD is selected
  7. Press Convert/Save (down-the-bottom)
  8. Change the destination file field to the location where you would like the audio saved to.
  9. In the profile drop down box select Audio –MP3
  10. Click Start
