Well, I've downloaded a movie and extracted it with Winrar
Left with many ISO files
The only way to successfully import them seemed to be with NERO burning Rom
But size would use 8 CDs! Would love to fit them on 1 or 2
DVD Shrink seems to only work with Actual DVDs

Any suggestions Folks?

Thanks muchly

something isnt right here, there should only be 1 iso file to burn

an iso is like winrar its a wrapper holding lots of files and folders inside this 1 image.

was this a download from the net? it may explain the many files you have are winrar parts say 40/50 which when extracted make the iso...

Nothing here to see, move along folks.

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, you can see my title Dimwitted is well earned. This was downloaded from the net with the suffix "DVDR". It is now in like 50 parts. I was under the impression that ISO was the format that all the files were in resulting from opening the rar with WinRAR.
When right clicking the file, the type properties type says "WinRar archives".

So, I guess I'm still sorting out the need to shrink to burn, or some other Modus Operandi to get them on a DVD.

Thanks again

click on the first rar file and extract the iso, winrar will put the 50 winrar parts of the inside single iso back togehter as 1 iso image

this iso image should be bang on dvdr size!

so just ise imgburn to burn this iso - easy.. extract and burn, no shrinking

Nothing here to see, move along folks.
