.ISO question

I LEGALLY downloaded what I thought was going to be an .ISO of a starwars fanfilm from Azureus (good bittorrent client by the way). Problem is that the file came in the form of a .RAR and then when unpacked it was Video_TS and Audio_TS folders. Not an .ISO file. How do I burn this to a DVD and get to playback on my comps dvd player? Anyone know? I can get it to play, but I think would like to store it on a DVD if I can...it's a really big file. Hope my question makes sense.

as far as i know you just put those files onto the dvd... if you look at most dvd's they have folders like that (from a data point of view).

if it is small enough, a cd might work instead of using a whol dvd... you might be able to just find the .vob files and run them (it) instead of even buring...

Right. I can run the VOB files. But it's 3 GB worth of info so I'm gonna wanna store it eventually. shrug. Thanks for the tip, I'll give it a try one way or the other. Anyone else got tips, please add here.

I believe Steel is correct - you should just be able to burn those files/folders directly onto the dvd. It should work. If not, you're only out the cost of the dvd, but you'd still have the files stored.

if you can run them from your desktop you can run them from the dvd as well...

Try running the files with a DVD program (Media Player might work) and see if it will play.

It does indeed play with with my dvd player. I just need to store it.
