Hey.
I downloaded The Simpsons : Hit & Run game & got a bunch of .bin & .cue files.
No idea on how to burn them :S
Thanks in advance.
Burning a PC game into a DVD.

Hmm.. a bunch of files?
I know if it's an ISO file you can burn it as a disk image [like burning an OS or something], if you can batch them all I guess it could do it.

I
ve dealt with .iso before, its very easy since it`s one file. -
1 bin + 1 cue make one cd i think.
burning several cds (files in the 700mb range) onto a dvd is complicateing things. i would suggest you burn it to the medium of apropriet size.
was some time ago since i acctually burned from image files so i dontrecall much about it, but doesnt the burning program you use help with information?
also im assumeing that you know of daemon tools and are burning the files to use on another comp?

_Bin files hold the data and cue files tell the program/burner how to read the data. Cue/bin files are disk mirror files. A supposedly exact mirror copy of a disc. You will need one each for each disc. Nero will burn them onto a cd. Find the function under file–>burn image and then select the cue file. You also can extract the data/video with vcdgear or cdmage. There may be others that will do the trick. I am unaware of a player that can view bin files directly but as stated above, you can extract the video and then play it. I find vcdgear easiest, but others don't like it.
I also was having problems burning Bin/Cue files, I was getting "unexpected file type" or "Unable to insert file xxxxxxx".
I'm not all that computer smart, but I'll try to explain how I got mine to burn. I found that if I used Iso Buster to recode (?) the files to MPG, by creating a new file, I could burn it with Nero Vision Express.
Here is a link to Iso Buster here if you don't have it: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/cdr_software/cdr_tools/isobuster.cfm
Open your BIN file with Iso Buster, I clikck on the CD at the top, then right click, go to Extract CD , then down to Treat as video ONLY, extract but FILTER only M2F2 MPEG video frames (*mpg). It will ask you where to save it (I always save it in the same folder my original copy is, don't worry about them getting mixed up it will make a new folder)Then it will start to extract, and ask you to save again once finished. After it's done I go to Nero Vision Express and go to make DVD Video, then I add my file (it should be a MPEG Video file). There's all kinds of things you can do like make menues, create chapters, etc…. but the main thing is once you finish the fancy stuff (if you want to) it should burn no problem._
That's what I found. I don't have Nero or tried using those stuff so I dunno if it works, but anyway.
