PSP Isos HELP!!
Dear all:
Every time I download a psp iso from here, it downloads in rar format. When I download from another page, it download in ISO format.
The differece between them is obvious, the ISO file is one single file, the rar file is a file wich contain hundreds os files...
So, the page says "psp iso´s" but they are not iso files compressed with winrar.... do you understand me?
Can anyone help me?
Thank you.

.rar is a compressed format used to save space. Use Winrar or 7zip to extract the image file of the game.

No, because it is not an iso file compressed.
When I extract the rar, there are hundred of files! So, the page says "psp isos" but they are not isos....do you understand me?

Then you are probably extracting the contents of the image file as well. To avoid it make sure iso files aren't associated with the program you use to extract, change that option in the program settings. Once you have done it, extract again the compressed files, the result will be the iso file.

lol @ winrar

No. Look, i will explain it better.Originally Posted by Cookie Monster
I download an ISO psp game from another page, and I get an iso file. Only 1 file, with the name "x".iso I can not extract it, because it is an iso, no a rar file. Just an iso. The file icon is the Ultra ISO.
OK, when I download an iso psp game from here, from emuparadise, I get a rar file. Not an iso. The file icon is the winrar. The file name is "x".rar. If I extract the rar file, I get hundreds of files, and none of them is an iso.
Any idea what is going on?

A single archive, with the scene release split archive inside it.
Use 7zip it has better compatibility.

You don't understand what a split archive is?
Spoiler warning:
No, man, I dont get a split archive. I told you, I download from another page (for example) DantesInferno.iso Is an iso file. Not a rar. But if I download from here, I get DantesInferno.rar. Not an iso, a rar. If I extract it, I dont get an iso file, I get multiple files.
It is not that I get a split file.

Some files are compressed even further and then split into parts because some file hosts have a limit as to how big a file you can upload.
If you have multiple rars just extract the first one like .r00 or whatever it is (can't remember) but it will be the first one. Anyhow it will automatically unrar the rest and put the iso/cso back together.
The only other thing it could be was already mentioned and that is you uncompressed the actual disc image itself and will have to un associate it with winrar or 7zip

I still think you are extracting the image file itself..
Anyways, post a picture of the folder where the files you downloaded are so we can see what you have. Make sure file extensions for said files are viewable.
I don´t think so, because I have the ISO extension associated to UltraISO, and te RAR extension associated to Winrar. That´s why I get a file with the UltraISO icon when I download it from another page, but I get a file with the rar icon when I download it from here.
Plus, the name is .ISO when I download from the other page, and the name is .RAR when I download from here....
Strage, don´t you think?
Older than you think
It would help if you listed a few of the files you are getting or post a snap shot of the files you have extracted, instead of making us second guess that may or may not be correct but then just confusing you that in turn confuses anyone wishing to try and help you
I would still use 7-zip though instead of winrar, that just saves a bunch of confusion to start with.

I was troubleshooting the same exact thing and was getting frustrated to all hell. But from what I gathered here, I stumbled upon a solution, and decided to register and share the knowledge
NOTE: I did this with winRar, and I"m pretty sure you can do it with 7zip. Haven't tested the 7 zip way though :c
1) download the game you want
2) un-rar it with winrar
3) open the folder that the file was extracted to
4) Observe the many files in the folder
5) select all of the fragmented "rar" files
6) right click and select extract
7) TADA! one single Iso file from the many ziped files
Conclusion
Russian had the right of it when he said the the file was split into pieces, and then compressed individually. the iso file is essentially shenron, and the only way to summon em is to "extract" all 7 of the dragon balls and put them in one place.
hope this helps
