WebCam Video corrupted

[igbyslocumb]

I was following the instructions on this thread: forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/625409 because it seemed pretty much my problem, until some point...

Anyway, I couldnt open the file, just as dan0el couldnt!

The difference is that I was recording this video on my webcam when my neighbor thrown a brick on my laptop (the one that was recording). Now I need this as police evidence, but the video in which she threw the brick on the laptop is the one corrupted!

Guys, Im freaking desperate, and I already spent the night trying VirdtualDub, VirtualDubMod, VirtualDubMPEG and all the sugestions on the thread I mentioned above.

I just have to believe that has to be a way of a 1,96GB video having at least one usable frame.

Just one more information, before she threw the brick on the computer and it felt, she had already thrown a bunch of other bricks in my property, so for the police it doesnt have to be exactly that last second of film, but any part that shows her throwing stuff. The computer is working fine, I had to connect to a monitor because the screen is busted, but other than that is normal!

Thank you guys in advance!!

You could try something video repair tool. Not free though.

maybe the header replacement trick might be worth a try.

Is there data when you open up the video with a hex editor ? (If it's all blank then it's hopeless)
