    I don't think cue is what you need.

    If it's not a movie or other video type file, then you can create a disc image called *.iso and then use a program to burn the ISO to a disk.


    I'm not sure about the technical elements of the process, but I believe you need to have a program that can burn the ISO properly so it will actually work like a real CD.

    I use SonicStage, and it does the trick for anything non-movie/tv.

    It depends on what you're wanting to burn... Did you rip something to make a copy or are you trying to put something together on your computer into an image file?

    I'm guessing what this guy wants is to take a bunch of images (probably JPG or PNG files) and burn them onto a DVD such that he can put them in his home DVD player (i.e., not a computer) and see the images on TV.

    Effectively DVD players play video. So, you might use a video editing program like Windows Movie Maker, iMovie, Premiere, or something like that to make a slideshow of the images and then add a soundtrack. Or, some DVD mastering software might have the ability to do an image gallery using menus and stuff. Or, there might be some special DVD subformat for image galleries, but I'd doubt that.

    Spoiler:
