Guide "How to burn BIN/CUE files with Nero" available

15 February 2002 4:18 by Petteri "dRD" Pyyny | 57 comments

We have had so many people asking "I've got this 600MB .bin file, how do I open it?" that we decided to create a guide describing how to burn BIN/CUE CD images with Nero Burning Rom.

You can find the guide at this URI:

Hi all, I am totally new to this and have learnt loads from this site, so thanks. I have a bin file which did not have a cue. I created one and burnt the image to CD using Nero 6. This all worked fine, but when I went to play the CD it just says 'bad disk' in my DVD player or if I try to see the files that are on the CD via my PC it doesn't bring up anything. I know that the CD is completely full, so how come, what am I doing wrong??

Someone said to select the .bin file and it wont give an error.... well it does....everyone is saying so and you wont listen all......

This is what I found....you choose the .cue file, not the .bin file when selecting to burn an image file...

quote:
Bin files hold the data and cue files tell the program/burner how to read the data. Cue/bin files are disk mirror files. A supposedly exact mirror copy of a disc. You will need one each for each disc. Nero will burn them onto a cd. Find the function under file-->burn image and then select the cue file. You also can extract the data/video with vcdgear or cdmage. There may be others that will do the trick. I am unaware of a player that can view bin files directly but as stated above, you can extract the video and then play it. I find vcdgear easiest, but others don't like it.

Now I have the end file..what do I do with it....

I tried to burn dvd files using the data option on nero, and when I put it in my dvd player, it simply ejects it. My computer also doesnt recognize it, and shows the dvd as blank, though it does have data on it and I cant burn over it. Now I've wasted a dvd....maybe I chose the wrong method? Is there a dvd copy mode and cd copy mode? maybe I chose cd copy? id ont know, this is frustrating though.
ok

I also was having problems burning Bin/Cue files, I was getting "unexpected file type" or "Unable to insert file xxxxxxx".

I'm not all that computer smart, but I'll try to explain how I got mine to burn. I found that if I used Iso Buster to recode (?) the files to MPG, by creating a new file, I could burn it with Nero Vision Express.

Here is a link to Iso Buster here if you don't have it: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/cdr_software/cdr_tools/isobuster.cfm

Open your BIN file with Iso Buster, I clikck on the CD at the top, then right click, go to Extract CD <Content>, then down to Treat as video ONLY, extract but FILTER only M2F2 MPEG video frames (*mpg). It will ask you where to save it (I always save it in the same folder my original copy is, don't worry about them getting mixed up it will make a new folder)Then it will start to extract, and ask you to save again once finished. After it's done I go to Nero Vision Express and go to make DVD Video, then I add my file (it should be a MPEG Video file). There's all kinds of things you can do like make menues, create chapters, etc.... but the main thing is once you finish the fancy stuff (if you want to) it should burn no problem.

Hi I'm new here and not very computer smart, there seems to be a lot of great info here, so if any one can help, pleazzz, I downloaded a bunch of movies off p2p, they are in AVI format. I burned them using numerous programs, Nero, for one and turned them in to DVD, MPG format but they won't play in my home DVD player. They play great on my PC, can any one tell me what I am doing wrong. Thank you so much. Great site. I am glad I found this place.

Hey all... i've read through all the posts and i think i'm getting a different problem with my CUE/BIN file.

when ever i try to load the CUE file into Nero 6 it comes back to me with this error

http://www.ftclan.net/smitler/neroerror.JPG

i've double checked the contents of the CUE file:

FILE "The Longest Yard 2005 DVDRip kvcd Jamgood(TUS Release).bin" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE2/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00
TRACK 02 MODE2/2352
INDEX 00 00:04:00
INDEX 01 00:06:00

If anyone can help me at all it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks heaps!

hello
well this is how i change bin and cue files but iam still looking for an easier way myself
once you have download your file and you have a bin and cue file.
you can burn onto your hard drive or onto a cd.
then when you have these files on your HDD or CD.
You need to look for the file MPAGAV inside you'll find
AVSEQ01 now you will need some software called WINAVI. With this software you can convert it into a MPEG file.
Once this is done you now can convert this MPEG file into DVD. This is how I do my converting. If you have any tips please post. Thank you!

Ok I downloaded a game from a news group and all the files I tried to urar them but they wouldn't it only gave me the option to compress them because it couldn't read the file extension. I downloaded a program called hj-join because i heard that it could join all the files and make one and it was sucessful. but I still can't unrar the file or burn it what else do I need to do.

hi all again
this is a new update for anyone still having trouble with bin and cue files.
this is very easy
1st http://www.vcdgear.com/download.html copy and paste this address tthen look down the list for "VCDGear v3.50a (GUI)" then download it no need to install just extract the files from the rar then use the software.
change the bin or cue file into a mpeg once in mpeg format you can the convert into dvd format.
i use myself VSO DivXtoDVD 0.5.2 its free and easy to use. also you can convert multiple files by click on the folder again and selecting another file and you can also covert more then one film at once by clicking on your icon more then once. to find this software copy and paste link http://www.videohelp.com/tools?
tool=vso_DivXtoDVD then look on the page for the words.
Other info:Download the old free DivXtoDVD 0.5.2 here
well thats all i hope this has been alot of help.

i'm using a dvd player on my tv that has a USB slot. i download videos in AVI, mpeg, etc. format to my memory stick, put it in my dvd player and run the movies. i have some movies in bin/cue format for subtitles and need to get them into one file on my memory stick in order to run on the dvd player. i don't burn dvds as it's not really necessary when i can run from USB memory.

does anyone have advice on how to convert bin/cue files into something like mpeg or AVI that i can save on a memory stick? i'm not very familiar with Nero. perhaps i can convert and save without burning a disc?

thanks!

if you have power ISO its the easiest thing in the world

click the .bin .iso or .cue files and it opens in power iso.

to make things easier power iso also burns the files...

how do you like them apples :D

I'm new to this and was hoping someone could help. I've successfully used Nero 7 to burn a bin/cue file kvcd to cd (to watch on DVD player). It works fine BUT the problem is, the last 10-15mins of the movie become pixelated and it skips/jumps. Obviously very frustrating if its a good movie! So...is there any reason for this? Help!!

This is what works and all you need is nero 8.
If utorrent is running close it completely as utorrent interferes with nero 8 (don't know why just does.)

-Burn the CUE file to a CD using nero burning rom
-You will end up with a cd that has one folder which contains a .dat file, burn that using nero vision to a DVD.
VOILA!

As a side bar when answering someones question here don't answer with what you THINK will work, or what should work. Computer issues such as this are complicated enough without having to wade through the nonsensical ramblings of a bunch of wannabee knowitalls.

So Stick to the facts
