NAME
recovermov - recover movies from a filesystem image
SYNOPSIS
recovermov
[options] device
DESCRIPTION
Recovermov
tries to identify mov movies from a filesystem image. To achieve
this goal, it scans the filesystem image and looks for a mov structure at
blocks starting at 512 bytes boundaries.
OPTIONS
- -h
-
Display an help message.
- -b blocksize
-
Set the size of blocks in bytes. On most file systems, setting it to
512 (the default) will work fine as any large file will be stored on
512 bytes boundaries. Setting it to 1 maximize the chances of
finding very small files if the filesystems aggregates them (UFS
for example) at the expense of a much longer running time.
- -i integerindex
-
Set the initial index value for image numbering (default: 0).
- -n basename
-
Basename to use to create the salvaged files. Default is
video_.
All the sizes may be suffixed by a k, m or g letter
to indicate KiB, MiB or GiB. For example, 6m correspond to 6 MiB
(6291456 bytes).
EXAMPLES
Recover as many movies as possible from the memory card located in
/dev/sdc:
recovermov /dev/sdc
Recover as many movies as possible from a crashed ReiserFS file system
(which does not necessarily store files at block boundaries) in
/dev/hdb1:
recovermov -b 1 /dev/hdb1
