a .bin file is an cd image

You can't just play it, you have to burn it on a cd (see FAQ)

After that you'll have a SVCD format movie. You can play that on a stand-alone DVD player or on your PC.

Ok, I see this cue/bin everywhere and it like i am always explaining now u have another problem as well because u don't have cue file so most likely u got that off of kazaa so search for a .cue file if it doesn't have u will have to make one using notepad but if u do find one and u have nero buring rom or CDRwin your in luck but since i use nero thats what i will explain now open nero close wizard if it pops up and clik file then go to burn image then go to the folder where your cue is located (make sure the bin is in the same folder) then clik burn and i will burn your bin to cd whatever it was supposed to such x-men in this case is what it will be. Also i have not heard of an x-men2 in a .bin file but i don't know it could be. So thats how u do it. To learn how to make one download one and open it up with notepad. Peace out.

Now burn to the disc anyway i just thought about that it should have used your normal burner but since it didn't go to cd-rom iso and choose your image then burn

Are you using a 80 minute CD-R ? Because a 74 min one is too small.

What type of burner do you have?

Gre1

man just burn it on a regular 80 min 700mb cd it should hold it if not your out of luck

CD Images and (S)VCD are burned a little different as normal data. That way there will fit 800 MB on a 700 MB CD-R.

So that should not be the problem.

Well you should just be able to burn it fine on an 80min/700MB CD. You are burning it as a disk image, not a data CD right? Select burn disk image, then select the .cue file that came with the .bin file

But seeing as you have problems with that, download VideoLAN from the downloads section here (http://doa2.host.sk/), then in VideoLan select open file and choose the .bin.

hi there &#33;
not sure if this will help or confuse, but here goes.
firstly i just downloaded my first BIN file(Autocad 2004) i used Fireburner 1.7 to burn this 400meg file just to see the files and view the exe for installation. all files were there so install was similar to normal RAR method.
i use Nero for burning and 90 minute cdr for your file size. Nero will safely do overburn(ignore warning message)A 90 minute cdr will do the job after you change preferences to facilitate larger disc.
regards

nero says there is not enough space on cd-r please insert cd-rw

VB

No you don&#39;t need a CD-RW.


Go to File > Preferences > Expert Features

Enable overburning and set the max disc length at 82 minutes.

ok so i have installed videolan



it works :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

i have tried setting nero to overburn but it still says not enough space :(

so if there is another way to share the file somebody tell me and it will be so...

i was thinking if i just share the cue & bin file you clever people can work out how to convert it .

if you think this is a good idea tell me &#33;
