    You can't. If it's a movie (video files) you can use Recode to compress it enough to fit onto a single SL disc.

    Bittorrent. The thing is I didn't notice the extention before the download was completed. By the way I'm a huge Tool fan. :)

    Tool is the bestest! :p

    Is there a readme.txt with the torrent, they sometimes comes with burning instructions.

    Try mounting the nrg with virtual drive and then import into DVD Shrink or Recode.

    No, just nrg file. I love tool but not so much computers, that is I have no idea how to do what you just told me. I think it would be easier to find that movie that is a different type of file.
    Anyways, any idea if toll is going to make another album, ever.

    Excuse me for stepping in.
    Is it possible that the file was converted to nrg for DVD-9 (DL)?

    Again, I have no idea. I just know that its a nrg file, very large and I cannot burn it or simply watch it. I have a nero 6 if that is what you are talking abaut.

    Try Nero Express and choose Disc Image.
    If your file is made for DVD-9, you need a DL (Dual Layer) disk.

    You can open it with DVD Shrink.

    If your DVD burner supports burning to dual layer discs, that would probably be the best option. Dual layer DVDs are a bit more expensive than their single layer brethren however. Verbatim is a great brand, though the media ID/code is what you really need to be looking at. (A great site that deals with media quality is...

    most are hard to find, and some are no longer manufactured, but Verbatim DVD+R DL discs have never given me a coaster.

    Use Nero or ImgBurn to burn the .nrg image.

    That should get you going

    I didn't think DVD Shrink would/could handle .nrg files.

    Anywho, from Nero SmartStart create a Virtual Drive, mount (browse) to your nrg and open it. Once open, you should be able to point DVD Shrink or Recode to the VIDEO_TS folder within.

    You don't need an NRG file to see it. Just do the open disc image and you will see that it one of the file types.

    I'd want to that regardless, so I could preview this image first before doing anything.

    Well, i did everything you said, I have created a virtual drive, opened it with dvd shrink, analized it, back it up and tried everything I could and never thouthgt i knew how, but it still doesn't work when it comes to burning. A window pops up saying Error:\nCannot connect TRF and then a bunch of data when I scroll down.
    Could this be a bug in the program or what?
