NAME

       ecm-uncompress - regenerate error correction codes from ECM files

SYNOPSIS

       ecm-uncompress  ecmfile [outputfile]

DESCRIPTION

       ecm-uncompress  is used to recreate CD image files (ISO, BIN, CDI, NRG, CCD or any other format that uses
       raw sectors) from ECM files, by regenerating Error Correction Codes (EEC) and Error Detection Codes (EDC)
       striped by the program ecm-compress.

       Because  ecm-compress  only  discards EDC/ECC data for sectors where it's verifiably possible to recreate
       that data, the process is lossless.

EXAMPLES

       ecm-uncompress foo.bin.ecm
              regenerate the ECC/EDC data from foo.bin.ecm and save the resulting CD image as foo.bin

       ecm-uncompress foo.img.ecm foobar
              regenerate the ECC/EDC data from foo.img.ecm and save the resulting CD image as foobar
