Moved ECM format to PS1 heading
It's a split archive, usually RAR. Make sure you have [http://www.7-zip.org/ 7-Zip] installed. Do not use WinRAR. Extract all those files somewhere. Then, right click on the first in the sequence (e.g. r00/part1/etc) and, depending on the program used, should have an "Extract Here" command. Use it; it'll output the files you're looking for. You can then proceed to delete all those r0x/partx/etc files if you want.
 
===ECM format===
'''I downloaded a PS1 game from emuparadise. It's in .ecm format and won't open in an emulator. Why?'''
 
ECM is a compressed format. You need to decompress using PakkISO or ECM Tools (both provided on the emuparadise download page). It'll output as a .bin usually, which is what the [[.cue]] uses to load the game. Note that recent SVN builds of [[PCSX-R]] DO allow loading of ECM files, however it's recommended to unpack them anyway. Linux users can use the ECM Tools which should be included in your repository, which is explained on [https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1472552 Ubuntu Forums]. You then need to use the 'ecm-uncompress' command in terminal.
