    Question Burning a DVD image from IMG files

    Hi,

    Complete newbie here so please excuse the probably daft question.

    I downloaded a movie which has given me multiple RAR files, which when expanded all contain a file with the same name.

    (So I have file1.rar through file44.rar, all of which when un-rar-ed contain a file called file.img)

    As just mentioned the file(s) is/are an .IMG file which I understand needs to be burnt to DVD before I can view it.

    What I need to know is how do I get all of the .IMG files together so that I can burn them, given that they all have the same name? Surely I don't have to unrar them all individually and rename each one manually? I'm thinking the creator of the image must have done this in some kind of automated way?

    Also, since the entire download is supposed to be one movie, when I burn them to DVD will they all play consecutively?

    By the way, the file description contains the text "PROPER.CUSTOM.DVDR-BLEJZ" if that helps in any way? I have read the faq's but still cannot fathom this out!

    Help? Anyone?

    Cheers dudes! :gj

    Google "DVD Decrypter", set it to 'write mode' in the ISO menu, select the browse button and find the image then burn it. :)

    Also if you don't have or don't wish to waste a disc you can install Daemon or Alcohol 120% or Fantom CD or any other CD ROM emulator out there and mount the img file then open powerdvd or whatever ya got and select the emulated drive to play from.

    Er.... dude just open the .rar or .001 file and extract the image somewhere. It's a spanned file split up into parts.

    Hey thanks I'll try those.

    By the way, the files are all .rar, not spanned .001 files.

    I'll get those apps and see what happens!

    Heh! Told ya it'd be a simple query - it was a spanned .rar file - I didn't realise ALL the parts could be called .rar. I thought they had to be .001 and .002, etc.

    Cheers again!

    hi there,

    i downloaded a movie on the internet and had those rar files.

    here is what i did

    1. download winrar on the internet for free.

    2. click on the first rar file. the file with no numbers at the end.
    (ie) without 01,02 etc., ) right click on it and choose extract

    3. it brings up an interface like winzip. choose a destination
    folder and click extract.

    4. it creates a single .img file on the destination folder unzipping
    all those 01.rar, 02.rar files.

    5. now you can burn the img files.

    check out the audio while writing it to a dvd.
