Some videos don’t really need a visual part. Lectures and video podcasts don’t become less interesting when turned into an MP3 file. How do you transform video into audio? There are a lot of special programs for that but we recommend using Movavi Video Converter to convert .mpg to .mp3. The trial version of this MPG-to-MP3 converter is free to download, so you can test the software before getting a full version.

With this MPG-to-MP3 converter, you can easily transcode any video to MP3 or one of the other audio formats. Movavi Video Converter supports more than 180 formats and allows you to turn MPG, MP4, MOV, MKV, and other video formats into audio. It also has a few editing tools to apply all the necessary adjustments to your videos. Learn how to convert MPG to MP3 by following the instructions below.

Step 1. Download and install the software

Use the buttons below to download Movavi Video Converter for Windows or Mac. Open the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions to install the program.

Step 2. Add files for conversion

Click the Add Media button and then hit Add video to upload videos you want to transcode. The desktop software allows for batch conversion, unlike the online tool.

Step 3. Choose the output format

First, open the Audio tab and then the MP3 category. Select the conversion preset with the appropriate bitrate value. A higher bitrate provides better quality but makes the output file bigger.

Step 4. Convert MPG to MP3

Movavi Library is the default output folder. To change the output folder click the Save to button. Finally, click Convert to start converting MPG to MP3.
