PBPs/EBOOTs in Retroarch

With this guide as a basis, I converted some of my PS1 games to the EBOOT format so that I could save some space. I could load them just fine on PSCX-ReARMed on my phone's RetroArch, but not in Mednafen in RetroArch on Windows (or on Android, after I double-checked). Maybe they work with standalone Mednafen, but they certainly don't work in RetroArch's Mednafen PSX core!

Also, someone might want to add a section about support for standard archive formats (.zip, .rar, .7z and the like) in RetroArch and other emulators to this article, because it seems like a basic kind of space saving that's been overlooked here, but also has inconsistent format across emulators. (The way it's handled in RetroArch seems confusing, between 'load as file' and 'load as folder'. --96.46.206.6 00:24, 30 October 2015 (EDT)
