Ok, so I occassionally watch a video game show on G4TV called XPlay and they run a segment called The Will Wright Minute. Will Wright, of course, is the legendary game designer who created Sim City and The Sims. In any event the XPlay folks have created a very clever opening song to introduce Will Wrights segment and as soon as I heard it; I wanted it as a ringtone! Watch the embedded video below (the beginning) to see what I'm talking about.
So, I want to take just that opening segment and turn it into a ringtone so I can get laughed at in public and expose my true nerdiness. These are the steps to take to acheive this goal.
- Copy The URL of the video to get (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGPMvaYFbn0)
- Use TechCrunch's YouTube ripping tool to download the file as *.flv
- Use the Open Source C# tool FLV_Extract to remove the audio from the *.flv file
- With a ringtone maker program like MAGIX create the tone (I have Magix so I don't know about free ringtone makers)
- Upload to phone
