Bin file help please.

[buzzardbush]

Have downloaded a few vcd's from my ftp supplier, when i use win rar to extract the film i only get the bin file, how do i burn this to disk using nero 6.

thanks

You can use bin2iso and then just load them as you would any image

Could also just create a CUE.

i used the bin 2 ISO converted, burnt the image to disk, tried to play the vcd on my dvd player no joy, any ideas?

thanks

Correct me if I am wrong but can't WinISO convert .BIN file to .ISO files?

[buzzardbush]

Anyone?

How do you create a cue file?

[buzzardbush]

Right managed to create a cue file burnt the image to disk still cant play it in my dvd player. Surely someone has come across this problem.

Cue file used had correct name of .bin file

File "filename.bin" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE2/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00

well you could use winiso (www.winiso.com) to extract the movie file from the bin, then use Nero to burn a vcd, I've never tried this but can't see why it wouldn't work, having said that I know very little about VCDs.

[celtic_druid]

I would suggest ISOBuster over winiso which I would imagine would leave the riff header intact so that when it comes to authoring you end up with two headers.

i would just use nero and burn the bin.....

[buzzardbush]

Tried burning the bin file with nero still wont play. Been messing around with creating a cue file, copied the cue file i had from another vcd, and renamed it the same name as the bin file and then burnt the image to disk:

File "Filename.bin" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE2/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00
TRACK 02 MODE2/2352
INDEX 01 00:06:00

This cue file now works and vcd plays perfectly in standalaone dvd player .

Thanks for all your help
