<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I've also noticed, I remember vaguely, that you can import MP4s in Audacity and it will treat them effectively as MP3s. I don't think it says that in the official documentation though - or at least we'd need to find
it first, before mentioning it in ours. Just IMHO. </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I've started getting used to ShotCut, an opensource video editor that inputs and outputs just about every file format known to humanity. Maybe that needs to be the next Floss Manual, as their official site has extremely
sparse documentation -- it's a really good tool, holding it's own easily with all the other (really good) free video editors out there, but it seems to be literally two guys in their spare time, and they have no time for documenting anything. Audacity is
now lavishly documented in comparison...</p>

I don't have a lot of experience with Audacity, but on Fedora<br>
(PulseAudio) I find that either I need pavucontrol for setting up<br>
recording of streaming sound (from Firefox for example) or it's much<br>
easier with it.<br>
<br>
Something else I've noted just by trying it is that if you save an .mp4<br>
file using something like downloadhelper in Firefox, you can import<br>
these into Audacity, where it only shows and plays the audio portion, of<br>
course, then export as .mp3 if you just want the sound. This can be the<br>
easiest way to get recordings, except when downloads are blocked, in<br>
which case recording the streaming is the way to go.<br>
