.bin/.cue to .avi?

What program could I use to convert a .bin (with a .cue) moviefile to an .avi?

if you can play the files in mplayer, look at the command mencoder , by default it produces avi's , but can also make mpg's if i recall ...

Nope; that's part of the problem. Can't play them in mplayer; but essentially, I really just want to convert to .avi files.

mplayer CAN play vcd's from .cin/.bin file pairs. this means that mencoder CAN encode from .cue/.bin to .avi. check the manpage for mplayer for details of mecnoders usage.

Do you need an extra codec to play them? I've got around 4/5 different .bin/.cue files, and none of them work with mplayer.

nope. i guess you're using the wrong command, but all you've said it "it doesn't work" whcih is not useful.

Sorry; I've just been opening it up in GUI. Tried running it through Konsole, and get the same classic mplayer "Error!". This is the output, if it's any use:

Hmm, interestingly enough, after leaving it open for some time, the film starts playing, but is interrupted every second or two by an Error message flashes and disturbing the playback.

try from a console then...

Code:

mplayer cue://file[:track] [options]

I'm putting in:

Code:

mplayer cue://file:/home/francis/torrent/finished/Collateral.2004.TC.SVCD-SToRMVCD/CD1/coll.cd1-stormvcd.cue

and I'm getting "invalid cue track". Sorry, I was a little confused about what you had there; am I doing it right?

drop all the file:// nonsense... just put the real file anem there.

Still getting the "Error!" with:

Code:

[bincue] cannot open

...that's from:

mplayer cue://home/francis/torrent/finished/Collateral.2004.TC.SVCD-SToRMVCD/CD1/coll.cd1-stormvcd.cue

Figured I might need an extra / there before home, but I still get an Error!, but without hte [bincue] stuff this time.

mplayer cue://home/francis/torrent/finished/Collateral.2004.TC.SVCD-SToRMVCD/CD1/coll.cd1-stormvcd.cue

right? again please provide the FULL output from mplayer. it can be easy to miss something.

You're quick. ;) I had edited back in a coupla mins after. Hmm, ok, the full output:

hehe, i'll try to slow down....

remove and unneccesary leading directories. if you're already in you home dir, drop "home/user/"

It works! Well... not really. Just tried it with two .cue files, and in both cases it starts working perfectly and then cuts off a few seconds later. In both cases I get something like...

Code:

Broken frame at 0x1E892

I'm extracting two others now, so I'll see if the files are the problem, though I doubt it.

Edit: Oh, the whole output:
