I'm afraid that that recording is lost.

When a file is corrupt, there's not a lot you can do with it anymore. As far as I know anyway.

Yes there is a solution you can try!

HD Video Repair Utility

There is a trial which can repair 50% of your recordings. Hint: Read the f***ing manual :)

This piece of software already saved my life twice. I recorded some camera signals with an ass of KiPro recorders. Everything in ProRes HQ.
Finely the show ended and one of the technicians pulled out the power-plug before we were able to finalise the recordings. BAAAM! :evil: .....every file was corrupted but the GRAU HD Video Repair Utility was able to repair every certain file.

Maybe you give it a try! Good luck!

I can confirm that the Grau software successfully repairs these unfinished quicktime files that occur when Resolume crashes in the middle of recording. there are a lot of other programs out there that claim to be able to do it, but don't. This one was the first I've found that really works. thanks for mentioning it, cosmowe. :D
