    Hi baby_grl. I think it may have been me that advised you to check out DivxToDVD as I thought you had AVI files. I was unaware you had an ISO file. Now that I have more info, let me see if I can help...

    If you have Nero, simply change the file extension to .iso and select burn image.

    You can also download Image Burn for free, which is specifically designed to burn image files to DVD. It's especially useful for DL DVD media.

    First you need to change the img file extension to iso. Below is a link that explains how to view file extensions if you cant see them already. After you can view file extensions right click on the file then click rename, and that will allow you to change the file name to end in .iso

    http://www.worldstart.com/tips/tips.php/407

    Put a blank DVD in your burner. Next, open Nero Burning ROM. A "New Compilation" window will appear. Close that window, which will take you to the Nero Burning ROM main screen. Next, click "Recorder." Then click "Burn Image." Next, select your file and you should be ready to go.

    ImgBurn will do the job as well as Nero, if not better. I prefer to use it for img or iso files. ImgBurn is free and specifically designed for burning DVD image files.

    Please post your specs, including PC, operating system/file system used (NTFS or FAT), DVD burner make/model/firmware, software/versions, and the type of DVD media you are using.

    It is possible that the file(s) you have are corrupt or incomplete. However, in a previous post you noted that you used DAEMON Tools to mount the image. Did you check to see if the mounted image played?

    you dont need to change anything,(extension)

    if its just the one img file for the film,then just burn it with dvd decrypter,or imgburn as suggested above..thats it

    if they are iso images,they should just play,
    if they dont it may have something to do,(more likely),with the fact the dvd player you have doesnt recognise the disk's
    if you have another,or access to another player,try loading them on that
    or playing them on the pc for that matter using the dvd burner

    how big were these images?
