[NFBCS] Accessible m4v to mp3 converter software

[Doug Lee]

Interesting! I was not aware that VLC could be used as a command-line format conversion tool.

Apologies if I've said this on this group already, but I have started a set of JAWS scripts for VLC, to help work around some of the interface
issues in it. The scripts so far, and as I incrementally update as I get time, are at https://www.dlee.org/updates/vlc.htm

When the full non-beta release comes out, it will be at https://www.dlee.org/vlc/

I prefer ffmpeg for this type of conversion though.

   I successfully used the gui 3 years ago when I needed, now I could see
   some back then when zooming in. VLC gui was a little confusing and not
   always describing what is going on.  Who knows today they may be fine.


   Either way you will need to install VLC an open source converter.

   Does anyone know of an accessible software program for converting m4v
   files to mp3? Thanks.
