Arrrgh !!!! (Burning video to DVD using Nero)
Discussion
I'm about to start throwing things out of my pram
I've just downloaded the demo of Nero 6.3.1.25 because I want to burn two videos to DVD, er, for backup purposes.
The first is an AVI file (which plays fine in Media Player)
The second is a folder full of 15mb files all ending in the suffix R00 to R47, plus a RAR, SFV and NFO file.
Could someone please explain to me HTF I'm supposed burn these to DVD coz I've been ar*ing around with Nero now for about 45 minutes and it's about to go out of the window
Thanks

i had the same problem a couple of months ago as i am used to doing my dvd burning on the mac and all software is sorted.
anyway on the pc, you have to have the video encoded so that it can burn to dv format.
so you need nero vision express 2 and nero DVD-Mpeg2 Plugin.
both available from p2p software.
then you can load the files to nero and it will encode then burn.
hope this helps.

I got something called Sonic MyDVD with my new PC and all you do is give it a video file (any format so long as you can play it) and it makes a DVD out of it. I think it'll even write to DVD in real time from an external source (eg : DV Camcorder, TV, VCR, Satellite etc) That's pretty trick...!
The folder full of files contains a RAR archive. Use WinRAR (free download) to extract the archive. RAR files are like glorified ZIP files, except that you can split something huge (like a video) into smaller segments (the .r01, r02 files). Also RAR archives frequently come with .PAR files which enables you to repair a RAR archive if a bit is missing.
Edited to add:
If you open the .NFO file with NotePad you will probably find who ripped the film, posted it to the web and other pirate oriented information
