So I'm trying to play a file, but it refuses to play or if I use more capable players, it just produces blank/black frames.
KM player produces this (header data?)
>pic related

Any ideas?


I looked at the info with MediaInfo and it says this .avi is MPEG format.

I also tried 'video/header repair' utilities, but they don't seem to work

MediaInfo


this is what one person had to say:
> it looks like a modified version of the normal AVI container format. There's a 16-byte long "Neople Video Fil" [sic!] header at the start, followed by another 16 bytes with file size and a few other fields I'm not sure of. After that header it looks like a regular RIFF AVI container, except the "movi" chunk is a regular chunk that video players can't parse, because they expect a list chunk. I'm not knowledgeable enough about video formats to convert these to standard AVI format. Video data might be using a custom codec or something too. There's also a few hundred bytes of weird junk data at the end of these. Not sure if they're at all significant.

>EDIT: Looks like a headerless idx1 chunk at the end, but the number of records doesn't seem to match the number of frames, and they don't point to chunks either, but raw data. Sticking the movi chunk in a list chunk doesn't really help either; there's only one data chunk that abruptly leads to a flood of headerless data that can't be read as a list.

Where did you get that file? If it's from a DVR, you likely need some utility to convert it.

>Video Fil

Post that file, I'm curious.
>>
>>55622522
it's from a video game
i'm sure they made it mostly unusable outside of their client because of this

still, might there be a way to edit it (hex editor?)
