Notes on this conversion
The video track is discarded and the audio is encoded with LAME at a constant 192 kbps. Sample rate and channel layout are left alone — a 48 kHz stereo source stays 48 kHz stereo rather than being quietly resampled or folded down to mono. This is a re-encode rather than a copy: MP4 audio is normally AAC, which is already lossy, so writing it to MP3 is a second lossy pass. At 192 kbps that is inaudible for speech and hard to pick out on most music, but it is not a lossless extraction and nothing here pretends otherwise. One reliability detail worth knowing: an output that comes back empty is treated as a failure rather than handed over as a zero-byte file.

Frequently Asked Questions
What bitrate do I get?
A constant 192 kbps, on every file. There is no quality setting on this conversion — the high preset changes video encoding only, and has no effect on an audio-only output.
Is the audio copied out or re-encoded?
Re-encoded. The audio inside an MP4 is normally AAC, and MP3 is a different codec, so it has to be decoded and encoded again. That makes it a second lossy generation, not a lossless extraction.
Does the audio get resampled or folded to mono?
No. Sample rate and channel layout are never set by this conversion, so a 48 kHz stereo source stays 48 kHz stereo.
