[opensuse] k3b cue bin files
I have a .cue file and a large .bin file of 806Mb How do I burn this onto a blank DVD using K3b? BTW the combination plays fine in vlc. I just want it playable on my home video machine. Things I've tried: I've tried new video dvd project dropping the cue file into the VIDEO_TS folder but I get the error 'not all fules available to burn' owtte. I've tried as a data dvd burning the cue and bin directly but it won't play in my domestic player. I've tried bchunk but get two iso files both les than 8Mb so something is wrong there too. Endless google. Any ideas? cheers. steve. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

In my experience, there area lot of "it depends on" in this kind of thing. It depends on what is actually in the image file (eg is it in DVD format video, VCD format video, avi, mpeg etc.)... it depends on if your DVD player can handle whatever is in the bin file...VCD, avi, mpeg etc or only DVD formatted disks.. and so on. My suggestion... look into the bin file and see what exactly is in there. There are some useful gui apps that can do this with iso, cue/bin and other formats via the context menu in you WM of choice (in the SUSE repositories)... or you can manually convert from cue/bin to iso and mount at command line (mount -o loop -t iso9660 needs an iso9660 formatted iso to work... and cue/bin (in my experience) needs to be converted to an iso before you can manually mount it). Once you know what you are dealing with, you can decide what needs to be done next... whether you need to convert the video to another format that your player understands... whether you can copy out the video and burn it direct as data... whether you can burn the converted iso direct to disk... and so on. Of course someone else here might have a better suggestion, but this method has always worked for me in the past. Now I have my TV connected to the PC and bypass the standalone DVD player altogether. Saves a lot of hassle :-) C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

cheers. steve. Assuming a vanilla dvd player, you need to transform your files into something

The combination .cue/.bin doesn't ring a bell, but for starters you could look at http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=117709 to get a flavor of the problems that are awaiting you. I don't know about vlc (I thought that was a windows player) but if the .bin file plays in mplayer you surely can turn it into something that your dvd player will play. Regards and may the force be with you. :-) -- Jos van Kan registered Linux user #152704 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I had the same problem. All I found in my search was people saying "K3B can burn cue/bin directly", but not explaining how. It turns out there is an option on the pop-up window for burning CD(!) images that allows you to select "Image Type" cue/bin. It also recognizes the main file when you open it. The problem is that I always looked under "Burn DVD image" and this option is not there, only under "Burn CD image". It's been a while now, but I am almost sure I burned a DVD cue/bin with this option, or maybe it was a resized movie. Anyway, the disk played flawlessly in my DVD player. Good luck. -- Carlos FL Who is General Failure, and why is he reading my disk? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
The size suggests that this is VCD - i.e. it burns on CD, not DVD. -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny) Even the most advanced equipment in the hands of the ignorant is just a pile of scrap. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
This is a bit embarrassing. I renamed the .bin file to .mpg and burned that as dvd data under k3b. It works fine. So what does the .cue do? Nothing it seems.
