Unzipping Movie

Barewolf · 20-12-2005, 12:32

I have a movie that is 2Gb in Size, It is in 3 Folders named Disk 1-3. In Each Folder is about 29 Rar Files from KKRar - KKR29. In Each Rar File is a Bin and Cue File.

My Question is do I just unzip the first Rar file to a folder and burn to disk, or do I need to unzip all the rar files? Ive never come accross this before and its confusing me.

Also How do I burn the 3 parts (Cue/Bin Files) on one disk?

I know what to do with those, but unless you can prove that this movie is not copyright protected material I will keep it to myself.

grab all of the 29 rar files then right click on one and select extract, it should make a bin and cue from the lot ;-)

And as long as the movie title is not disclosed we have no option but to assume its all legit.

I'd say the opposite myself.
Any movie acquired in the form of archives containing a disk image just screams out "warez" to me.

I don't know of a single legitimate distribution method that uses those filetypes/methods.

I'd rather agree with that. However, at the same time, I have no wish to get into the M$/Sony mindset where nothing you can't adequately document is allowed (and sometimes not even then), and they don't even care if they mess up your machine in enforcing this.

Barewolf, what you have is a disk image. When you've extracted it, you don't burn it like a file or collection of files, you need to select the option in your burning software to burn an image to disk. Then just navigate to the appropriate folder, and the program should recognise it; then burn as usual.

I was going for 'innocent until proven guilty'

Don't get me wrong, I support that philosophy entirely.
If I was 100% sure that we're on the wrong side of the law here I would have closed the thread.

I am going purely on the evidence presented, we may seem twitchy towards illegal discussion topics but there is a lot at stake and not just for us as a community.

I would hate to see any individuals come a cropper unecessarily, especially if we have an oppertunity to give some sage advice and don't take it.

you can just right click and unrar one of the rar files and it will extract the movie files from all of the files.

thats the short and quick description.
