I have a ripped DVD that I want to put back onto DVD.
But whereas the DVD is just 5 or 6 files, mostly .db files, this rip is about 80 .rar files, with .iso files inside them.
Are these two totally different formats? Do I just born the Rars to DVd and be done with it, or do I need to use some special software to burn then, which will unzip them at the same time?
How do you Burn to DVD, when they are all RARs?

rar is a proprietary compression format. You'll need to get a program that can 'un-rar' them. There is an extrator available for linux and windows, It sounds like you should unpack the files and burn the unpacked iso, not the rar files thmeseles. Or un-rar them and re-zip them using zip.

Most likely what you have is multi-volume rar archive (they are usually called .r01, .r02, etc, or .part1.rar, .part2.rar,...). Unpacking them would produce a single iso file that you could burn.

If I unzipped all files, within which I can see those 'iso' files, how would Windows convert them into ONE ISO ??

windows won't, rar (WinRAR, unrar) would.
