    HHHHHEEEEELLLLLPPPPPP I've been searching for hours and can't find the solution.
    Is there a way to shrink a BIN file so it will fit on a cd? I'll even convert it to another format if I have to, but Nero won't burn it cos it's too large to fit on a CD.

    It's a movie, but I don't care if I keep it. I just want to watch it, and I'd prefer to use my stand alone player, rather than my computer.

    i'm afraid that shrinking an actual bin file is impossible unless you extract all the files and create a mode2 cd allowing you to use 850 MB onto a normal cd-r

    I think I actually figured it out with a little MORE detective work. (like MANY more hours searching and redaing crap).

    I extracted the files with iso buster, and then loaded the DAT file in Nerovision. THat seems to have worked. Took MANY more hours to acomplish, but the end result seems to be a dvd that will work in my stand alone player. (Although it's a small file. a little over one gb now, so now it feels like a wasted disc, but it worked.... Thanks anyway peoples!
