    dla.. only thing I know about files like that are they are related to iso's.. DLA stands for "drive letter access" and was used by packet writing software to use optical drives just like any other hdd...

    I think these are glass masters again.. try drag and drop to a blank dvd-rw

    When I searched the torrent Jan I found it was Earth The Beginning Disc 1...so I assume that dla is really d1a.

    okies.. just thinking out loud there. (why did redmond people think it was a good idea to hide file extensions by default?.. didn't they think users would ever need to know if something was an avi or a mp4 or a mpg??)

    File is probably broken.. index or interleave busted up..

    I would try running it through avidemux and seeing if there were any errors reported.

    we still don't know what format we are dealing with.. time for gspot

    other options... out of space to do the job required, final iso may be 4.3 but working space is more like 12 ;)
