Description

Battery died mid-take or the card got pulled? The footage is still there — it just never got the index that tells a player where the frames are. footage.repair rebuilds that index entirely in your browser and hands back a normal, playable file. Nothing uploads, ever — a 100GB file would take longer to upload than it took to film. Free preview first, so you know it worked before paying. Supports Sony XAVC-S/XAVC-HS, Panasonicmdt, and DJI Osmo Action.

Could you build this?

Partial Parsing MP4/MOV container bitstreams and reconstructing missing 'moov' atom indices requires specialized media container specification knowledge, even if bundled via WebAssembly.

What it would actually take: To rebuild corrupt video containers in-browser without server upload, the stack uses WebAssembly (compiled from C/Rust tools like untrunc or custom FFmpeg demuxer bindings) interacting via the Web Streams API and File System Access API. The hard part is reverse-engineering codec-specific packet headers (h.264/h.265 NAL units) against a healthy sample file from the same camera to recalculate sample offsets (stco/co64), chunk sizes (stsz), and keyframe indexes (stss).
