Problems converting bin/cue file to xvid

Hi,

I am having trouble finding compatible software to convert a bin movie file with a cue attachment to a xvid or movie format. Have MagicISO; however, doesn't seem to do the trick?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

There is a program that converts .bin & .cue files to mpeg format
http://www.vcdgear.com/

 

Hi Joelsz,

Thanks so much will try it out...Thought that MagicISO would do it; however, just converted into iso file....no other options besides nrg ...

Thanks!

I've never used MagicISO so I can't help you there.
Good luck with the VCDGEAR.
I think you will find it very useful.

 

Hi,

OOPS! Think I deleted that file in error...only can find .iso file?????

 

You should be able to open the .iso in MagicIso and Extract back to bin and cue files.

 

As emntioned above, vcdgear will extract an MPEG video file from the .bin/.cue files. You can then run the MPEG through Dr. Divx to convert it to an XVid/Divx compatible video. Here's a quick how-to with screen shots:
1. Launch VCDGear and click the vcdgear button (in the red box in the screen shot)
2. Select cue/bin -> mpeg from the drop down menu (in the green box)
3. Click Load and browse to the folder where your .bin/.cue files are located (in the blue box). By default, VCDgear saves the extracted mpeg in the same folder as the .bin/.cue files so be sure to create a new folder or change the location if desired.
4. Click Start and let it do its thing (the pruple box). It shouldn't take more than a minute or two.
NOTE: you will most likely get an error message like the one in the 2nd screenshot below. Don't Worry! I have rec'd this error message EVERY time I have used VCDGear to extract an mpeg and it has worked perfectly EVERY time I've used it, so it's normal and OK.
You can then run the resulting .mpeg video through your favorite converter; I use Dr. Divx. It's easy to use, you can set custom file sizes (in most cases I use 700mb so it will fit on 1 CD), it's fairly quick, and best of all, it's FREE!!!
Here's a link for Dr. Divx http://www.majorgeeks.com/Dr._DivX_d5208.html

I hope this helps! Good luck!
