Many of the audio and video programs are just front ends to
ffmpeg or to
VLC. You may find your ffmpeg.exe in various places on your machine (I have 3 at the moment).
You can also call them directly from a command line or command file, but requires some awkward details.
I have set up command files and set them up with a right click menu button in explorer to convert arranged them to exctract the mps from the dvr-ms files my tuner captures from radio or tv.
This is then very convenient in use, with extraction or conversion launched directly from explorer.
Here are some extract that may help: each is a single command line with short comments; use 1 of the three, not the whole thing ....
