bit torrent CUE files - not pirated

Finally dowloaded a video from my brother-in-laws vacation (yes, and my sister) but I cant get the frickin video to work. He wanted me to do some editing and play around with the video for her 40th birthday but I cant get the thing working and they are on another trip so I cant ask him how to get this working. This is my first time with bit torrent and I think its pretty cool but I have no idea how to put his video back together. (I even downloaded Nero6 trial but I'm lost)

Am I a dumbass or missing something really simple here? (that would make me a dumbass by default) I need to get the video edited and working by Sunday, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

BTW, first time with bit torrent and have no clue what I'm doing and yes I am serious.

P.S. As some of you remember I did a flash site for her birthday a couple of years ago, this is my next attempt at impressing her.
 
Was there a bin file that came with the .cue file? You can go under file-burn image and load the cue file to burn it. This is in Nero 5.5, I think the burn image option is under another menu in Nero 6.
 
If you're going to edit it, it'll probably be easier to mount it with a virtual CD driver such as Daemon Tools rather than wasting a CD/DVD-R on it.
 
Yes, there is a bin file with it. I am so frustrated right now I am about to say screw it and ask him to mail me a CD/DVD with the damn video when he gets back, this is making me crazy and I am normally pretty good at this type of stuff. Sorry Kim, birthday is late this year... (it's her 40th, she would probably like to put it off if she could anyways, lol)
 
the bin file is where the actual data is. Either download a trial of something like WinISO and rip the contents to your hard drive, or burn the bin/cue file to a CD and read from CD.

Great info, but I tried to extract it and winISO said I had to buy it to convert anything over 100MB. (file is ~500MB)

This is frickin crazy, I have even googled this and cant find a way to do this. 😕
 
winrar might even work. Most ISO applications will work as well. If all else fails, burn to CD first.
 
i'd like to revive this old thread with a question...

I have the BIN file but not the accompanying CUE file - is there a way to make your own CUE file from scratch?

i.e., open up some other cue file in notepad and change the file that it points to, then save the file as the BIN filename except with a CUE extension
 
If you are using daemon tools, you don't actually need the CUE file to mount it.. just select daemon tools to display all file types and mount the BIN file directly.

Personally, i think it's easier just to use nero or WinISO to either burn or directly rip the contents of a bin file without messing with a cue file. But yeah, there are many tutorials on the web on how to make your own cue if you really want to.
