There was supposed to be more to my topic heading... and now I've found you can't edit subjects and apparently you can't delete. I'm learning the hard way.

OK guys, I feel so stupid for posting this. But I've read many forum threads here and I've googled the crap out of all my questions- nothings working! Here's the deal: I have Nero, DVDX, CDRWin, WinRAR, DVDShrink and I had Alcohol 120%. I extract my RAR files, creating my .cue and .bin Then I burn as an image to a CD. I have tried this multiple times, and nothing is happening. What I get are files on my CD that look like this:

CDI, EXT, VCD, MPEGAV, and SEGMENT.

In CDI, there's nothing.
In EXT, there's LOT_X.VCD and PSD_X.VCD
In VCD, there's ENTRIES.VCD INFO.VCD, LOT.VCD, AND PSD.VCD
In MPEGAV, there's AVSEQ1 (DAT file)
In SEGMENT, there's nothing.

Nothing playable whatsoever, not working in DVD player or XBox w/chip. What am I doing wrong? I was told to burn these on CD-Rs. Yes, this is my first time burning RAR files and loading cuesheets and what have you, if you couldn't tell.

Nothing is happening??
Looks like plenty happened to me.
What you have is an (X)VCD. You should be able to play the DAT file on your PC. Should also work on DVD players provided they support burnt VCD's, assuming it is a VCD. If it is an XVCD then some players might not like it.

you can beg a mod to change the title of your thread to one thats suitable.If they have time they may.

Try nephilim or flip or darthnip via the private message area.Explain your issue with your thread heading and see if they will change it for you.
