How Do I Get It To Play?

i just downloaded the matrix reloaded off of bit++. There is a problem though. I've never worke with video files that are in image form like bins and cues. I'm not sure if it's svcd or vcd but i know it's one of them. it's the Matrix.Reloaded.TS-ESOTERiC off of bittorrent++ and there are 5 files: eso-mxr1, eso-mxr2's of bins and cues. there is also an info file. I dont know how to burn them to make them play as a vcd or svcd on my dvd player. I thought since because they were image file then i should burn as an iso but it didn't play as an iso and these bins and cues won't burn straight from nero as vcd because they have to be mpeg1 not cues and bins right? How to i get them to play on the dvd? help? sorry if this is another matrix topic yall didn't want but i'm sure yall would count this as a video problem and not another matrix topic.

Nah no problem. Everyone is here to help. Not quite sure what you want to do with the video files though, so Ill give ya some options. Well since the files are already in bins and cues you can actually burn them using Nero. Start up Nero, close the CD Creation Wizard, and then go to File -> Burn Image. Locate the .cue file. And your set. With the files burnt like this thell burn in their VCD format, and 95% of the dvd players out there should be able to play it. Now if ya just want to watch the files on your pc. Download VCDGear , start the program, load the .bin file. And youll have yourself an Mpeg-2 video file. Easy as pie. Good Luck

Yeah .bin/.cue files are so much better than having to encode and burn vcds. It is so much less time consuming. Oh and your welcome

I downloaded Matrix 2 from bittorrent and the cue files wouldn't work. The filename that they pointed to was not the same as the BIN file that was with the files. I edited the .cue file real quick, and everything worked fine.
