[FFmpeg-user] Newb Help! Extracting pics from recovered video file/ or repair recovered video file

[frank rizo]

Ok, so i found this….
ffprobe -v error -select_streams v:0 -show_entries stream=codec_name \
  -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 video.mkv

and i used it on a working video recorded from the same camera. it said 
rawvideo

is this a codec?   i tried the same command on the broken video, no luck

ALLs-MacBook-Pro-3:desktop ALL$ ffprobe -v error -select_streams v:0 -show_entries stream=codec_name \
>   -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 yep.mov
rawvideo
ALLs-MacBook-Pro-3:desktop ALL$ ffprobe -v error -select_streams v:0 -show_entries stream=codec_name \
>   -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 00005580.mov
[mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 0x7f92cb027800] moov atom not found
00005580.mov: Invalid data found when processing input
ALLs-MacBook-Pro-3:desktop ALL$ 

I also did another video I recovered , which plays, and got this result…

ALLs-MacBook-Pro-3:desktop ALL$ ffprobe -v error -select_streams v:0 -show_entries stream=codec_name \
>   -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 00005579.mov
h264
ALLs-MacBook-Pro-3:desktop ALL$ 

soooo…. I shall assume its h264 codec?  

how do i rebuild the codec, command line?

cheers
