.nrg file?

Post by Bluefalcon »

I'm currently downloading something that has an .nrg file extension but I've never had any experience with that particular file before. Can I burn it just like you would an ISO (image burn) or do I need to convert it to something else 1st?

Any help would be great :)

You should be able to burn it with nero.

If you want to extract the files you can use a programme like PowerISO.

It's a Nero image file type, it's similar to .iso, etc.. so I think you can burn straight with Nero.

you need nero to burn it. or deamon tools or alcohol 12% to mount it as a virtual drive.

some info here for you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NRG_(file_format)

You need to use Nero as your burning app it will let you burn this file like an .iso file or so!

As stated above, use MagicISO to convert it and extract or just burn with Nero.

Myself, I prefer to convert it and have the AUDIO_TS & VIDEO_TS folders by extracting them and burning that way.

Thanks for all the help guys. Once I extracted the folders with MagicISO it was business as usual.
