My HDD crashed and I ecovered my files by a recovery utility.Some video files with mov extensions have been recovered but are corrupted and can not been played back.
Can anyone suggest a mov recovery software please.
Thanks
 
Specifics of repairing QuickTime .mov containers

Unless the sample tables inside the moov atom are intact, the repair is not easy.

Media data, from one or several tracks, is laid out continuously, without any header or pattern that would help determine where a frame starts and ends.

Movies with RTP packets (for streaming, webcasting applications) are easier to repair because the packets contain redundant information about audio and video frames nearby.

here you can test to see if the file is correctable, but it would cost you money if you want it fixed in the end... be aware of this...
