Is it possible to take the audio from a video and take away the video? I recorded myself using cheese on the guitar with the webcam/recording into the laptop but now i want to take the video away from it.

Here are a few ways to extract audio from a video

video to wav
mplayer -ao pcm:file=audio.wav video.xxx -vo null -vc null
or
ffmpeg -i video.xxx -f wav audio.wav

video to mp3

ffmpeg -i video.xxx -f mp3 audio.mp3
or
mplayer -dumpaudio video.xxx -dumpfile audio.mp3

Hope this helps
