I am ripping the audiotrack from a personal digital video on DVD, with the intent
of burning these tracks (by chapter) to a CDROM playable on a Walkman CD player.

The DVD audio ripper will rip the DVD audiotrack in MP3 or .WAV format--but in
what format(s) should the audiotracks be burnt to the CDROM so it can be
played in a CD player?

Thanks for any feedback!

Tracks as they are burned to an Audio CD are .WAV format so best to rip as such and then no audio quality is lost.

A simple app for burning just Audio CDs would be Burrrn ( www.burrrn.net ).

Thanks, TimC!

I've got Nero Smart Start (bundled with my new DVD/CDRW drive), so
I'll probably use that.

You might find Burrrn better & simpler to use. It also has the tendency to work when Nero fails.

I'll give it a gander, thanks.

D.V, what program are you using to get the audio from the DVD?

I've been trying to do this with DVD decrypter but it runs into problems.

CDDA is RIFF-WAVE format, it comes with either motorola or intel headers.
Just save the source as 16-bit wave format, 44100Hz.
