I have a top of the line G5 imac, the works - dvdonex, mac the ripper and toast. But my problem is i need to figure out how to burn downloaded dvds. I can get the rar files, but can not use Macrar (as it is not supported by mac OSX) any alternatives to decompressing the rar files? I tried using macpar, but it only creates .pnn files, which are no good. So after I finally get the rar files decompressed, how do I put the files into dvd format, with chapters and all???

any help is much appreciated

I don't know much about this rar malarky since I've never downloaded anything DVD size. I ususally rip DVDs from disks using the software you mentioned.
Try using the search facility on this page and see what comes up under 'rar'. If you need a utility to work with rar files under OSX try looking in www.versiontracker.com. Failing that try searching the internet for "OSX rar decompressing" or something like that.

Hope you find something.
