I got a dvd file that I want to play w/ having the dvd in my comp.

two files. .bin and .cue

What do I do?

I personally use DAEMON Tools http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/portal/portal.php for when I don't want to always have to switch CDs. The great thing about this is that it is able to read most of the popular filetypes, unlike what I used to use (the one that came with Nero.. can't even remember the name)

ahh sure...a dvd file....you got from kazaa/irc? lol

burn bin/cue with Nero, or use "Deamon Tools" to make a virtual drive..then point to .cue to have the dvd play from virtual drive.

ahh post at same time

I dont understand what you mean ToaD

Jezz: Those files are CD Image files, or maybe DVD image files, prolly CD. Anyways, you need to use NERO or another CD burning software to burn them to PC.

When you burn then.. it should have an option.. "burn image"
Dont just burn those 2 files onto the cd/dvd

use Nero..

Go to burn image to dise / look fo the .CUE file / then pick the speed to burn it as / and your good to go..

**i use Nero 6**

If you don't want to use CD's to view these files, you should get Alcohol 120% which allows you to mount the image files onto a virtual dvd/cd-rom drive. Then you can just use Media Player or any other commercial DVD player (PowerDVD, WinDVD, etc. and play the file directly rather from a disk.

thank you te2586,

Where can I go to download Alcohol 120% ?

Their site is: http://www.alcohol-software.com/

It's not free software though....unless you know a place where you can get it without paying *cough cough*. It's worth the money in my opinion if you do a lot of things with cd images.

O, I dont do much with CD Images, and I dont download pirated software.

Any one know of something Free I can use? I am looking to view these files directly from my computer.

Thanks
Jezzo

Much better suggestion than the others.

Nero is horrible for movies. Stick to Alchol 120%

Worse case scenario, you should also just extract the .bin using ISO Buster, and burn manually ;)

I don't understand what I need to do.

How do I view the files locally without actually burning them to DVD ?

With that, just go to that link and follow some instructions. Basically you install daemon tools, right click the icon in the system tray and then select an image to mount to the virtual drive.

1. Install Daemon.
2. Lauch it, after restarting.
3. Right click on its icon in systray.
4. Virtual Cd-Rom->Device 0->Mount Image.
4. Select cue or that bin file.
5. My Computer->that drive.
