        The rules here states not to say where you downloading ROMs from!

        You need to unzip and/or unrar the downloads first so you have a <game name>.bin and a <game name>.cue. Then put both of those files in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/psx/ on your RPi.

        I don't have a PlayStation choice on the main screen I only have NES SNES nes64 and Sega

        you might not have one of the PSX emulators install because the default image of RetroPie doesn't come with it pre-installed (I don't think).

        Fast forward that video I posted above to like 15:28 and watch it until the end!

            @streetsweep ok now you need to extract it from the .ecm. You can google how to extract .ecm file.

              @streetsweep honestly though just google for psx .pbp files. Much easier to use a .pbp then bin and cues.

                @edmaul69 .pbp files will definitely be the easiest way to get this working.

                        @streetsweep if you find .pbp files they will probably be in a zip or .rar. You just have to unzip the .rar to get the .pbp file out

                          I guess I just need an easier step by step way to do it because I'm not very tech savvy I know some but I guess this is past my limit
