I have a download movie in 3 parts right now all bin and cue files. now how do i burn those to a dvd?
Bin/cue are burned to a CD. To burn them to a DVD, you will have to pull the mpg out. author it and then burn to DVD: http://forum.videohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=141726 Here's the method I use but there are others.
any others because on that website you sent me to. tehre are 4 different types and im really confused. Like i dont understand the guides. i just want to burn my dvd from mpeg files
I believe VCDGear also will do. It's actually not as difficult as it looks. The guide for VCD to mpg (MPEGAV) or SVCD to mpg (MPEG 2)(you have one or the other) are the only 2 that apply in this case and opening your file in Isobuster will show which you have and, from there, you just follow the appropriate directions. Regardless of what program you use to extract the mpg, it has to be authored before you can burn it to DVD. I know of free burning programs but not authoring programs in case that applies.
Now you author them, if they are DVD complant MPEG 2 and burn them to a DVD. I am not familar with VCDGear; if they are MPEG 1, they are only VCD compliant and can't be burned to DVD yet.
I'm guessing its MPEG2. I dont no how i would find out. Also if it's MPEG2 what do i use to burn it? I just about got nero vision to burn it but it was gonna take 3 hours. thats crazy.
It's probably MPEG 2 but like I said, I know nothing of VCDgear. Opening the file in GSpot will show audio details in the bottom left (VCD is 44,100 HZ while SVCD, DVD is 48000 Hz) and video details in the upper right as well as various other details like resolution, whether the proper codecs are installed, etc. Eg, if the proper codecs aren't installed, you won't be able to see or hear the file. After authoring the files, you can burn the created vobs with ImgBurn; it's free, easy to use and very good. Keep your burns around 4x at first and experiment from there but 4x - 8x seems to give the best results.
You could use TMPGEnc DVD Author. I'm pretty sure it has a trial and there is a guide here at AD for it: http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/tmpgenc_dvd_author_guide.cfm (Basic) and http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/advanced_tmpgenc_dvd_author_guide.cfm (advanced). Just to add, the reason Nero is taking 3 hours is that it is probably encoding your file again, it already has been. You don't want that as a second encode will reduce quality. I believe I read that checking use smart encode in video options causes Nero to only burn the file.
