    Yes, but the amount of work required depends on what format the files inside the .BIN are. The easiest way would be to use IMGBurn and simply burn the .BIN to a disc, pop it in the DVD player and see if it plays. Many videos are available in .BIN format (usually accompanied with a .CUE file which isn't needed most of the time). .BIN files are more-or-less the same as .ISO files; they are simply an 'image' of a disc. Like if you photocopy a page from a magazine, then crumple the photocopied page into a little ball; the ball is the image, and uncrumpling it (in PC terms it would be 'extracting') reproduces the desired result. So- if burning the .BIN with IMGburn doesn't play in the DVD player, you can use a program like TUGzip to extract the contents of the .BIN to see what's inside it, then once you know what's there, you figure out if you need to convert the files to a DVD friendly format.
    :-D

    If you have more questions or need any help, feel free to post!
