mencoder -dvd 1 -dvd-device /video/lotr/LOTR_SEE_D1/ -alang en -sid 0 
-oac copy -ovc copy -o /dev/null -vobsubout subtitles

works well. However it extracts subtitles only. I don't want video but 
.wav stereo pcm sound. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't have it 
together with subtitles extraction, right?
