no video_ts just loads of rar files, what do i do?

[andrew101]

I have recently downloaded the torrent of a movie and there is no VIDEO_TS folder, which is what i'm used to seeing?

The torrent itself is 4.32Gb so i imagine the dvd is all there but i don't know how to create a dvd from the files i have downloaded.

The torrent contains 31 rar files, 63 unrecognised files and a folder containing a sample of the movie which plays very happily using nero showtime.

can anyone help me as i have looked everywhere for info on this without any joy.

I am also quite new to all this so the less technical the replys the better

thank you

Hello Andrew, You need to get a copy of Winrar and Unrar the rar files.

Not sure what you can do with your unrecognized files !?!?!?!?!? - but you never know what you will get in a torrent download.

To get a copy of Winrar, type in Winrar in a gogle search page & that should take you to the Winrar site.

When you install WinRAR it only registers the first 30 or so file types (i.e. .rar, .r02, r01 etc up to around r26 or so). after that they come up as unrecognised in explorer, but Winrar will see them. Just double-click the .rar file, and the rest will open with it.

so once i have extracted all the files, shall i put them into a video_ts folder ready to make a playable dvd?

also what shall i do with the .sfv file?

i have just tried to extract the files and it says "You need to have the following file to continue" which it says is C:\Documents and Settings\My Documents\AzureusDownloads\Battle.Royale.Dir.Cut.2 000.COMPLETE.NORDIC.PAL.DVDR-TUSADvDr\tusadvdr-battle.Royale.Dir.Cut.r00

does this mean this torrent is useless to me?

Install QuickPar
http://www.quickpar.org.uk/
double click on the .sfv file

[andrew101]

once i have downloaded quickpar, how do i use it in conjunction with my torrent??

[powerpc123]

Double click on the .sfv - QuickPar will tell you if all is well with your collection of rar's.

You are missing files from your archive, and connot get a complete set of source files without it.

You are ialso likely to get your butt kicked by a mod for mentioning that you downloaded copyright material
