Repairing .MST files
c@mera posted 2008 Sep 12 01:43
Apologize if this is the wrong place to ask about this, but I am trying to figure out how to repair a couple .MST files that I recovered from the drive in a Sony HDR-SR5 after someone unplugged the camcorder without disconnecting it via the software first. The video no longer shows up on the camera, but with a data recovery program I was able to track down the file. Whenever I try to open it with any kind of conversion utility or player I get an error of some sort or the other, the most frequent is "missing sync byte."

Does anyone know of a utility or a way to mend files that may have been corrupted in this way (Could just be header info that is bad)?

Much appreciated. The footage can't be shot over again, so I hope there is a solution out there somewhere.
