Recovering from SDHC

Post by FotherMucker99 »

So I had to delete a concert I filmed in order to film the headlining band's entire set.

Now has anyone been in this situation and had to restore the *.ts files from his SHDC?

I deleted the files through the camcorder menu and not on a PC.

that program may work, but an even easier one is called undelete plus. http://undeleteplus.com/

It seems it is no longer freeware, but I am sure the trial will get you what you want since you probly only need it once. It will recover more than a few deletion cycles depending on how much/times was recorded over it.
Its dark. People are screaming and yelling. Firebombs are exploding. Adrenaline is flowing. Chaos ensues. Where am I? A Metallica show!!!!

My guess is it's almost impossible because of the extremely large file size. Those things work great pics and smaller files. I imagine a ts file is alt least a gig and would be extremely hard to recover uncorrupted. The largest file I ever recovered was my Slayer audio which was about 1/2 gig. I lost Bullet and Killswitch though, so it was a 33% recovery.

that sucks.

Anyway, it didn't happen with a very important band (for me), but it sucks, because you filmed the gig and had to delete it afterwards in order to film the band that was next.

Thanks for the help everybody!

hmm when i understand correct you deleted a file and rewrite the disc with other data and now you want restore the old date?
that is impossible. All this tools are for restoring deleted data, but not for data which is already overwritten.
