    Help with downloaded movie

    So I download a movie and I find out ( after 2 fucking days of downloading) that it are all .cue files and .dat files. Now how do I play this and on what? I've tried Winamp, WMP, Real and my dvdplayer and it doesn't work on anything. I have never heard of a .cue file can someone explain me how this works?

    Thanks a lot in advance

      Try downloading VLC media player, that usually plays everything for me

          Not familiar with them either..But have often downloaded unrecognised files and barr a few dodgy D/L usually end up finding the files in update...have u run a search for these files? Not sure this is any help...but good luck
          SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

              I'll try that one thanks

              And yes Minx I googled "how to play a .cue" and the only answers so far are that a .cue file makes sure the .bin files are writen over as well, and that I should be able to burn them on cd with Nero, so I will try that if downloading another player doesn't work.

                  Yeah those aren't movie files.. they are snapshots of CD's.. which you are supposed to burn.

                  If you get a program like isobuster you can just extract the info without burning it..

                      And that Evilguy for explaining what they are, I'm still kinda lost with that stuff

                          Try rename the .dat file to .mpg.
                          It works if its a .bin file so maybe it works for .dat too.

                                  It was a .bin file not a .dat file, my mistake I thought is was .dat

                                      Next time you can get a program like deamon tools, and it'll mount the iso file and create an cd drive *just like if you burned it on cd*

                                                  Bo, i see some ppl already gave ya help here.

                                                  But check out isobuster great program all ya do is open the bin file with it, extract the files then play the .dat file in media player or any dvd software player.
