I had just downloaded a DVD file via BitComet and what I got was a very large (about 7 gigs) image file. Now I had downloaded the same stuff before but I had gotten the files in a WinRar format, so I would just extract, use DVD Shrink and burn to a DVD-R. But this Image file is a bit different and I dont know what to do with it and how I can get it on to a DVD to watch on my TV. I tried playing the file on my comp but when I get to the menu, it is static. I cant click on anything.
Does anyone know what I need to do? It would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

What exactly is so special about this image file? If you can mount it with D-Tools, do so and then re-rip to DVD5 using DVD-Shrink.

http//www.doom9.org/index.html has a ton of great guides. You will probably want to use DVD dycrypter.

Use DVDShrink to rip DVDs.

You have to rip them into IFO format and then convert that to a usable format if you want it all in one piece.
I don't think dvdshrink can do that, try dvd decryptor.

Well see the problem is that the file is as an Image file and there is no video or audio dvd folders so its not compatible with dvd shrink or anything like tht.

You need a virtual drive software like Daemon tools. It makes your computer think that the image is really in a disk drive.
