How to Recover or Repair a 396MB 30-Minute .mp4 Video from HTC HD2 Phone?

Question

I recorded a movie on Saturday with the HTC HD2 phone and one of the movies does not work and I care about it the most. the file is 396mb and about 30 minutes, but how much exactly can not be checked. Will I be able to fix such a file?

Use (download and use for free) VLC media player - can play damaged and incomplete files of many formats (even .flv) - it also allows you to save the file in a different format. Of course, it has repair options and much more. Small single-module with built-in codecs. It is useful as an emergency Playerek, although it displays the subtitles poorly

can't open this file. what should I do to make it go? because he only gives open and that's it. I don't see any repair options for the damaged file there. where she is?

narkoholik · Answer

Drag the file's icon to the VLC Player bar. VLC will display a message if it can't, offer to repair or restore.
(you run VLC, in the explorer you open the directory with the file, preferably on the hard disk, and drag it with the mouse on VLC - this will force it to react).
If I can't do it remotely, I won't be able to help anymore. I would have to see the source file but maybe someone on the forum will recommend another soft.

only that the information about the error does not pop up. when I upload a file and gives play, I only see the inscription with the name of the file at the bottom and it disappears immediately. everything takes a fraction of a second. I need this file because it was a good party and I think that 4 people were lying on the floor so it was thick.

mona__g · Answer

Well, I am asking for help.
I accidentally deleted my child's movie file from my mobile (android).
After a long effort, I was able to get it back. It weighs 470 m.
Nevertheless, it does not open.
Could I count on help? It was a recording of my son's first steps, Sad

crypd · Answer

Try to use some converter and e.g. convert from mp4 to avi. It's best if you record an additional video so that you know what resolution, fps, etc. was it.

Are you trying to reopen it on your smartphone? or on the computer?

patriciusxxx · Answer

This videorepair program worked for me (http://grauonline.de/cms2/?page_id=5)

I attach a packed program. Unpack, run the gs.exe file. The trial version allows you to save half of the recovered movie. Press "Choose movie" and select the movie to be repaired. Click "Choose reference movie" and select any working movie from the same device. Click Scan. After the program is finished, the recovered movie will be in the damaged file folder in the "Repaired" subfolder

osiris7 · Answer

I refresh the topic, I have a similar problem: videorepair and similar programs do not help. How the damage occurred:

I packed the film with a winer (I thought it would take less time to put it on the pendrive ...) but as the file was large (over 1gb) the process took too long and I interrupted it after a few percent. From now on, the MP4 file with the movie plays only up to about 5% of the length, then the image and sound are lost but the playback continues. Video repair programs report that no frames are detected

If someone gives a solution that works, I guarantee a salary, the film is important to me. Thank you in advance!

VLC did not play the video for me and I tried dvr setup. At the very beginning, he couldn't restore the file, but he suggested that I show me some other file recorded with the same device and copy the properties responsible for displaying the movie.
Now it is working.

anakonda92 · Answer

I recovered the image from the damaged movie, unfortunately without the audio track Any chance to recover the sound from the movie?

darpla · Answer

Confirm - the dvr program repaired the file. Recording from the drone, loss of power while saving, over 1.2 gb - no other program helped, here the program asked for a good file for comparison and it recovered the whole without any problems !!!
ps, antivir is blocking the download

kalafior2012 · Answer

Hi,
I recorded a video with the Debut program.
The comp has crashed. File over 500 mega, avi won't open under vlc - repair option is not displayed even though it is enabled.
I used some avi fixers, downloaded all media fixer (downloaded 2008, although I chose 9). Nothing helped.
What program could help here?
I need this video back because it's a friends performance that I promised to record.

krzychupar · Answer

And the video of this performance of your friends is how it ended up on your computer, was it broadcast over the internet or something else.

kaleron · Answer

Each of these files would be a good idea to look at the hex editor to see if it actually contains any real content or if it is just an empty volume. Apart from the fact that each of these files should have a separate topic, the fact that you think that you have the same problem may not be confirmed in practice.

Youmound · Answer

Digital Video Repair He's doing great .. For me, he saved a few files with a damaged header - not closing the file properly.

kaleron · Answer

- but we don't know what was corrupted in the rest of the files in this thread. Or maybe they are files overwritten with completely different content?

Youmound · Answer

It can also split overwritten files. If part of the content is overwritten, we will get 2 files With a partially recovered and not overwritten part of the pattern file, and a new part separately.

kaleron · Answer

However, none of the problems raised in this thread went beyond the diagnosis phase.
