# Files from hard disc converting mode
In this mode you may convert BIN and MP3+G files to video files.
Ultimate CD+G to Video Karaoke Converter supports following types of files:
· CDG files, also know as MP3+G (CDG files contain graphics only, audio needs to be in MP3 or WAV file with the same name, located in the same directory as CDG file)
· ZIP files that contain CDG and MP3
· BIN files (they contain both graphics and autio)
To convert CD+G files into karaoke video files follow the steps below:
1. Select **Files from hard disc** button
2. Click **Add** and select BIN or CDG files you would like to convert from the appropriate folder. Click **Open**.
