Converting NRG files

[4stringer711]

Hi,

I received a show in .nrg format, but don't have Nero. I have looked online and it looks like this is the process for converting them is as follows:

1. Convert to ISO file

2. Burn DVD from ISO file

Is this correct?

Can anyone recommend particular software for these conversions? I would rather have the show as regular DVD files.

Thanks!

why don't you get nero and save all your troubles?

To make this clear nrg files are nero-compatible files. You'll burn them automatically.

Mount your *.nrg file with daemon tools and then you can copy the files that were in the image.

Thanks for the replies!

It seems like there is always another program that I need to buy that I won't get any other use out of. But I do need a DVD burning program and I will probably make some DVDs from videos I shoot of the kids.

So I probably will get Nero.

if you need it only this time, just use it once, theres trial or something

I use ImgBurn, it can burn nrg images.

not sure but i have extracted other files using winrar which worked.
open winrar if you have it, select you nrg file and it might give you the option to extract the contents.
imgburn will also do the job.

there is also IZArc
http://www.izarc.org/
which will allow you to extract the contents of the nrg file.

Thanks for the tip. I was able to extract both DVDs with Winrar. Everything looks and sounds great and the menu links work. I just want to research a little to make sure that the data wasn't changed in any way because I used Winrar and not some other program.

well im pretty sure the data is exactly the same.
i have done this many times and compared both and they are exact.

all its doing it extracting the files from within the file in the format they were created in.
no compression is used
