Help! Seemingly broken video!

[Munji]

Hi guys,

I am desperate for help! Some videos I took on my honeymoon seem to have been corrupted, I suspect they were due to using Aperture but I dont think thats relevant to solving the issue.

They were filmed on a Samsung camera, and for the life of me I cant remember what the original extension of the files were before they were imported into Aperture and worked. But now they have a .AVI extension. The files refused to play in Quicktime, MPlayer X and VLC. VLC does give the correct duration but wont play.

Media information says:



The files ran through DivFix++ also give me the error that the files are not really .AVI.

What can I do to get these back?

Thanks

Probably you cannot do anything other than take the originals back and discard all your Aperture work.

Without sample and without VLC logs, it's really hard to give any other feedback.

Hi, I can get that information for you. How do I go about it? Sorry new to using VLC really for anything other than general playback.
