Topic: Need some help with a file

[Pugnate]

It ends in .ape.cue

I tried Nero but it won't work.

What kind of file...?

Maybe you could try mounting it with virtual drive software, such as Daemon Tools or Alcohol.

Wait... it ends in .APE.CUE?  That's not a valid file extension, obviously.  If you mean you have two kinds of files, one that's .APE and one that's .CUE, that's different.  .APE files are an audio format called Monkey's Audio.  .CUE files are basically text files that split up a larger audio file into its component parts.  So you'll have an .APE album, which is maybe a CD but just in one giant file, then a .CUE file which will attach to that file so that you can skip tracks, etc.

I had a huge thread here about this not long ago.  Let me see if I can find it.

 ...

Bingo.

It's probably just a cue sheet for a corresponding large APE file.  Pug, try opening the file with a text editor.

I'd probably try to mount the .CUE on a virtual drive.

[Pugnate]

It is actually some music, and I've tried mounting and it won't work. I don't get it.

edit:

That thread really helped. Thanks Que!

This soudns a lot like the problem Que was having with his soundtrack APE and CUE files.
