Corrupt Video
« on: January 25, 2017, 04:06:28 PM »
Hey so I was taking video on my samsung Galaxy S6 phone and while I was recording, the battery died. Once I recharged the battery I found the file on my phone, but it was corrupt. Is there any chance I can still retrieve that video without having to pay $60 for some software? Any help is much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Probably not, and very likely that the $60 softwares won't be able to help you either.

Instead of opening it in Gallery try using the Video app that comes preloaded on the phone. See if that works....

What is the file extension?

There isnt any file extension. The file name is temp_video. I'm not sure if that helps, but when I try to change the file extension to .mp4, it doesn't play/

Try searching for preview video viewers, they allow watching half downloaded videos etc.
IF viewable, I'm sure it can be fixed somehow.
