    .rar is just a type of file compression. You should be able to download it as any other file and then use winrar to decompress it.

    I don't download and convert any dvd files. You will have to see what format the files are after you have decompressed them and then use the appropriate conversion software. Divx to dvd may work or they may already be in dvd format.

    You're welcome. I hope I have helped and haven't steered you in the wrong direction since I don't download any video files.

    have you extracted the file(s) from the winrar archive yet ?. If so, what's the filenames you end up with, ie .avi or whatever ?
