Procaster won't close correctly then my recording is broke

[alx_mendoza]

Hello Everyone,

Yesterday I was using Procaster at the end of the streaming when I try to stop the streaming/recording... the Procaster hangs out, I couldn't finished the recording as usual, never asked me for the name, so I had to kill the process.

But in the folder appears the recording and have weight (Livestream Procaster-20120513-110236_446.mp4) (269.5 MB) but I can't play the file.

Anyone knows how can I repair the .mp4 file?

Thanks
Alex M

I had the same problem yesterday. Any sugestions?

alx_mendoza - If Procaster isn't shutting down properly and you're manually killing the program it will likely result in a corrupt file.

raiz_forte - I believe you said in another post your recording is now in your library.

i found these guys on the net and sent them my corrupted file (1,36 Gb) and they sent me a sample of a part they recovered, stating they wcan fix the whole file but it costs like 250 US Dollars :/

So that means that there is a way to recover the files, please lifestream, can't you make a little support app for that?

cheerio,
Ben.
