Hello pluggers, I've had mixed success with videos and photorec in the past. What other tools have you used with success to recover videos from a phone before? I have a 32gb vfat formatted microsd card in one my phones. I recorded a video yesterday, and tried to upload it to youtube just to keep it in a safe place. A little bit of disaster struck, as the video never completely uploaded, and when I went to try again, the last two video files I recorded are corrupt and empty. :(
I'm capturing a dd snapshot to an alternate media source now in preparation to use recovery tools. supaplex@supaplex-laptop ~ $ file -sk /media/CFBB-6773/DCIM/Camera/*m4v /media/CFBB-6773/LOST.DIR/* /media/CFBB-6773/DCIM/Camera/VID_20120619_122607.m4v: empty /media/CFBB-6773/DCIM/Camera/VID_20120704_155829.m4v: ISO Media, MPEG v4 system, version 1\012- \0\012- \0 TEXt\011\011AportisDoc file\012- \0 /media/CFBB-6773/LOST.DIR/178186: ISO Media, MPEG v4 system, version 1\012- \0\012- \0 TEXt\011\011AportisDoc file\012- \0 /media/CFBB-6773/LOST.DIR/196315: byte-swapped Berkeley vfont data All playback of these files are completely spastic random color blocks and static. Any tips and extra help welcome. Thanks, Scott. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
