Padawan LearnerSorry if this has been mentioned elsewhere. You guys seem to be the ones to ask about this.
A friend of mine resently downloaded two films for me and gave me the BluRay rip files but when I tried to play them neither my PC or my Laptop could keep up I had no idea I would need something doing to either to be able to play these files.
Will they go on to a standard DVD easlily without loseing to much? I think the files where cinefiles, I've never heard of them before.

That said, if it's in HD, you can never burn it to a DVD-Video (playable on standard DVD players) and keep it in HD. You'd need to convert it to standard def.
If you have a Blu-Ray player, you can make an AVCHD disc (aka a "BD-5" or "BD-9"), which is basically just a Blu-Ray formatted disc burned to a regular DVD disc.
Do you use Windows or Mac OS X? If you use Windows, other members might be better suited to answer your question, but I can probably help out if you use a Mac.
Whatever happens, happens.

Untitledname_of_movie.avi <--That's the file extension. If it's an HD video file, it's most likely .mkv or .mp4 - my guess is MKV.

Padawan LearnerAh right well thats what I mentioned earlier I'm sure its cinefile, which I've never heard of. Stupidly I'm on my laptop at work so I won't be able to double check that til later tonight.
Just to be clear it's a hidef rip of a BluRay DVD.

UntitledCinefile isn't a file extension - it's the letters after the "dot" in the file name. Images are usually ****.jpg, Word documents are ****.doc, text files are ****.txt - those letters. Most Blu-Ray rips online are in .mkv format.
