I now inserted the following:
1. "CEAP" to ftyp (0x18 instead 0x14 bytes)
2. moov atom with qt-fast
2. udta atom from original at the start of moov atom (increases it from 0x1340E to 0x1344A)
Result:
Instead of a big "?" I now see a the preview picture on the camera. Unfortunately I still can't play the video because of "Not identified Picture".
So we are a little step closer to the solution.
Any additional ideas?
Yes, it would be a great help of a good tool to show and edit other atoms.
Which tool could be this?
Which ffmpeg loglevel command would show the atoms, even with less nice format?
