[bookport] query: separating audio from video files, for playing on the Bookport

Hi folks,

By way of introduction, my name is Eamonn O'Connor, and am living in 
Dublin.

I've had my Bookport for about a year, but have just recently subscribed 
to the list.

I'm wondering if there is software which will strip the audio from audio / 
video files, so the audio can be played on the Bookport?

I downloaded some files, (marking the 25th anniversary of radio 
Netherland's "Media Network programme.)

    While the audio plays fine in Windows Media Player (and I think Winamp 
as well,) , the video is really jerky, like a strobe light.  I'm not 
worried about the video, but would like the  freedom of listening to the 
audio while on the move.

The files are available in both Quick Time and Windows Media formats. 
Below is a link to one of the files, in case anyone feels like 
experimenting! 

Regards with thanks,

Eamonn
