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
