I am new to this Dreamcast game scene and need a little help. I have a few games that are in the .DCR format. What do I need to burn this format? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

DCR?? are you sure it's not CDI? The only 3 types that I know of are CDI, ISO, and BIN/CUE files. Did you download this file from somewhere?

Yes I downloaded 3 games from www.iemu.co.uk/dreamcast.html
the .DCR file is in the zip you download. Not sure if it is a compressed format or somthing. Never heard of it myself that is why I am confused...... It is the only place I have been able to find ANY games at......

.dcr is a dreamcast rom format or at least supposively is..., it should work for the emulator that is on that website. Which brings me to an inspiering question is it possible to change a .dcr to an iso if that is possible that would make the dl times of most games alot smaller makeing the games around 50 megs. Anyone have any idea on this?
