Hello,

I just downloaded a bittorrent file called "BadSantaVCdScreenerFlix" or something to that effect. When I checked the folder I actually recieved 4 files: 2 bin Files (Bad Santa 1, Bad Santa 2) and two .cue files.

I'm used to dealing with mpeg, avi, mov, and the like, how do I use these files so i can watch this movie?

Any help would be appreciated, or if you could point me in the write direction.

Thanks in advance!

Those are "images" of a cd itself to be burned to CD

However if you don't want to burn it to CD go and download Daemon-Tools or Alcohol 120% (less easy to use)

These programs are CD-ROM emulators and you install the program, then point it (open) to the bin/cue files and it makes your computer and the program/game/movie think it's really running from a CD-ROM and it plays like you would normally play

You'll likely need the VCD (MPG) codec to play it but you may have it already, if not then download the KazaaLite Codec Pack (newest is Kazaa Lite Mega Codec Pack 1.05) and can be found via a search engine

You can also download VLC player, which I use. Throw out the cue file, that's used in Nero for burning (it tells Nero what file to burn). Just drag and drop the bin file on VLC player. The icon looks like a construction cone.

Thank you for the replies. I'm using the vlc player, it works great. That movie is the best.

Daemon-tools is more useful in my opinion ... IF (mind you, IF) you want to download other things from BitTorrent, like games, applications, etc, as many will be set in the same format, as a disk-image (basically an exact copy of the CD) and you can use it for those.

But glad to see you got it going .... simple, eh ?
