[FFmpeg-user] Corrupt 3gp video

[Mark R Bannister]

Hi,

I have a corrupt 3gp file (with amr_nb audio) created by my camera that 
successfully wrote the first 42mb to an SD card before, I guess, the 
card got unseated.

I was thinking of using ffmpeg to load the header data from a known good 
video recorded on the same camera, while processing the video and audio 
from the corrupted file.

I've been hacking ffplay and libavformat, and have successfully got it 
past init_input() in avformat_open_input()by running 
av_probe_input_buffer() against an avio_open2() of the good file, then 
re-running avio_open2() on the bad file before returning from 
init_input().  However, now s->iformat->read_header() fails with the 
message:

[mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 0x681b20] moov atom not found

Am I taking the right route here? Will this work? Is there an easier way?

Best regards,
Mark.
