A .BIN file is an enclosure that contains a composite image of all the individual components (audio, video, timers, instructions) that make up a video file. Therefore it is already complete. All you need is the program(s) it was designed to be read by.

[b]You didn't mention it, but don't you also have a .CUE file that came with it? Whatever you want to do with the .BIN file, the working instructions are inside the .CUE file![/b]

Personally I would feed it into NERO, which will do all the interpreting for you, then burn the image to a standard 4.7GB DVD for use in standard domestic DVD players (or PC optical drives).

If you want to mount it as a virtual optical disc you could use 'MagicDisc' which is free and you can get it from here:

Good luck. :)
