What the heck is this file ?

[MA-Caver]

I been getting some (safe as in pre-scanned and post scanned for viruses) downloads that my version of windows doesn't recognize they're called (DTS).nrg
Cant' find appropriate program to open it or anything... what do I need... or did I just get a bogus file?

Nero CD-Image File

Need more input... and I've gone that page before. You run an error scan on it but before it'll do anything to remove/fix those errors you gotta buy it. Pretty crummy way to sell a product IMO.

thank you for that info....i have been trying to burn songs to cd's for a month now. i wasn't aware you had to buy it.

where are you getting the files from... email or on a CD or locally on your drive? Usually with Nero you'd burn the files locally or to a CD.

I've never played with one but a .nrg file SHOULD extract if you have a fully functional copy of Nero (not Nero Express) on your system. Double click the file and the extraction should begin. It can be a complete application like Word, a boot DVD, a live concert or even a boot disc with all the creator's file, apps and boot sector info.

its kind of like Nero's version of an iso file.

If you don't have Nero there's a tutorial on how to convert a vid that's in nrg format at http://www.moviecodec.com/topics/4721p1.html

Scroll down about halfway and you'll find it.

You can put the image on a disc really simple as well

IMGburn can work with both iso and ngr image formats and is really simple to use.
It's free as well ( where nero is paid software ) so that's another bonus
