Can anyone help me? It's supposed to be a movie, I have no idea how to watch it and/or (preferably) burn it to DVD. I'm on a mac.

Someone please help out an old fart.

Use VCDgear to convert it to .mpg.

Right on, thanks.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to burn it to DVD?

How big is it? Usually .bin files are VCD's, which get burnt onto a regular CD-R, and are around 700 megs.

I know programs like Nero and Fireburner recognise that format, but I dunno about them Macs.

you burn it

with Fireburner (or any other programs that support isos)

OR

you can use a fake cd loader

get Daemon Tools (it's free and works great)

Thanks guys.

It's two parts that are 700 megs each, I guess for two CD-R disks. I'll give that a try.
