nef files recovered then truncated
Posted: 22 Apr 2013, 14:29
Firstly thank you for photorec, it has helped me get some files off a disc that Windows won't even see.
I am using photrec 6.14 in parted magic.
I have recovered orf and jpeg files and am now trying to recover nef files.
If I leave multiple file types selected I do not get any nef files.
If I select only tif then I do get nef files (about 1000 of them) but the files are only about 1MB (exact size varies). If I check what is happening by listing the recover directory while photorec is running then I see the size of the recovered file growing to 20MB or more as expected but then it gets truncated to about 1MB.
Is there anything I can do about this - I have left the "paranoid" and other options at the default as I don't really understand them!
Thanks in advance for any help you can give on this.
