Stripping audio from an .avi

Hey,
I was just wondering if anyone knew of a program that I could use to strip audio from an .avi file

Normally I'd use dbpoweramp, but I'm looking for a more streamlined approach.

FFmpeg is one solution. To find out what the audio codec is, simply:

ffmpeg -i <your_avi_file>

It will be listed towards the bottom. So if it's mp3:

ffmpeg -i <your_avi_file> -vn -acodec copy <your_new_file>.mp3

Wow, that was much easier than expected, thanks
