I took video at a concert , one of them contains a whole song , about four minutes .

I would like to have that song in my iTunes library . Can I extract the audio and turn it into a suitable format for music ?

It should be possible.

Try first with QuickTime which is already installed on your Mac: open the video and choose Export As -> Audio Only...

Another option is to export the audio only track with Handbrake, a third party video conversion app.

✅ iCloud Drive > QuickTime Player > the file > open with > Music App and it started playing ! Even put it in a smart playlist . ( I also saw it my home folder > library > mobile docs > QuickTime player > the file ) . Now I'll name it & figure out what works in the information box ~ artist , album etc. .

Thanks Marco , much appreciated 👍
