MP4 file. Won't open - Missing EOF?
Hi,
Short version; is there a way to 'manually' add an EOF marker to an MP4? (Even if it means losing a few (or more!) seconds at the end)
Longer verion; I have 3 videos I shot (MP4) on a micro SD card;
1. Works beautifully when opened in QT. ( or iMovie, or VLC)
2. I forgot to stop recording before powering the camera down. The file is there, both on the card and copied to the Mac, but it just shows 'MP4' rather than a still clip in finder view. QT says it can't open it. Imovie has it 'greyed out' when I try & import. VLC won't touch it either. 😟
3. A quick test video after I powered it back up again - was hoping that would 'force' an EOF onto the end of #2, but no such luck. 😟
The file is 1080p, ~8 minutes, ~1.2gb. I really want it back! Any ideas or pointers very much appreciated.
TIA,
Ian
