Cannot recover ftyp.mov files

#1 Post by oxon »

Recovering .mov files from an exFAT SDXC card of an Canon EOS R5 cannot be opened, because ftyp files are not created in my environment (macOS 12.2.1, PhotoRec 7.1).

What I get are only files like f3078144_mdat.mov, and I do not see XXX_ftyp.mov in the recovered directory.

Here is a copy of my file setting.

Code: Select all

 [ ] mobi Mobi e-book                                                           
 [X] mov/mdat Recover mdat atom as a separate file                              
 [X] mov  mov/mp4/3gp/3g2/jp2                                                   
 [ ] mp3  MP3 audio (MPEG ADTS, layer III, v1)    
How do I recover ftyp.mov files?

I get many many XXX_ftyp.cr3 files, which are Canon RAW format files.

I don't know.
Please search the forum.
There are articles where Christophe Grenier comments on such issues:
