How to encode damaged video

Post by chrissyboy »

I think my video camera has a fault which seems to be intermittent. I have a video with good picture quality but the picture stops after a few minutes. The audio plays continuously though. The sound is not great. HandBrake balks at encoding the video. It has encoded 2 minutes of the 18 minute video.

I shot with 2 cameras. The other camera did not record sound but the picture is ok. (Human error in that case)

So I want to get the sound from the dodgy video to my editor so he can clean up and amplify the sound and make a decent video from the two. How can I get it to encode.


HandBrake version 1.2.0

Mac OS X El Capitan Version 10.11.6

error: av_read_frame error (-5): Input/output error

The file is damaged. Not a ton HandBrake can do here. If you're recording to an SD card or other media, you might consider replacing it.

Unrelated to your issue, but you should upgrade to HandBrake 1.2.2
