Couple of things about this software (I've tried it):

1.  You *NEED* Apple's $20 MPEG-2 playback component for QuickTime 6

2.  (maybe most important)  This software is, unfortunately, not ready for
prime time -- it extracted the video ok (which you can do with just
QuickTime Player anyway), but choked when it came time to process the audio
(had to force quit the app)...  Maybe it will get worked out in the next
revision or so...

2 cents.
