  <p>I have recovered some large videos as explained here:</p>
  <p><a href="https://superuser.com/q/1686118/571029">https://superuser.com/q/1686118/571029</a></p>
  <p>There are 3 videos of almost the same size with the same content, apparently:</p>

  </code></pre>
  <h1>Problem</h1>
  <p>The problem is all of the 3 videos could only be played up to 27m. I'm playing by VLC media player. But the video duration according to reported duration by <code>ffprobe</code> is 1h27m:</p>
  <pre class="lang-bash prettyprint-override"><code>&gt; ffprobe -v error -show_entries format=duration -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 -sexagesimal recoverit-Wondershare/00000084.mp4 
  1:27:14.640000
  </code></pre>
  <p>Also, right-click details/properties menu shows that the 1h27m is the duration.</p>
  <h1>No fatal erros</h1>
  <p>I double-check video integrity by the method here:</p>
  <p><a href="https://superuser.com/a/100290/571029">https://superuser.com/a/100290/571029</a></p>
  <p>By this command:</p>

  <p>But there are no fatal error reported in <code>error-fatal.log</code>.</p>

  # Problem
  
  The problem is all of the 3 videos could only be played up to 27m. I'm playing by VLC media player. But the video duration according to reported duration by `ffprobe` is 1h27m:
  
  ```bash
  > ffprobe -v error -show_entries format=duration -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 -sexagesimal recoverit-Wondershare/00000084.mp4 
  1:27:14.640000
  
  ```
  
  Also, right-click details/properties menu shows that the 1h27m is the duration.
  
  # No fatal erros
  
  I double-check video integrity by the method here:
  
  <https://superuser.com/a/100290/571029>
  
  By this command:
  
  ```bash
  > ffmpeg -v fatal -i recoverit-Wondershare/00000084.mp4 -f null - 2>error-fatal.log
  
  ```
  
  But there are no fatal error reported in `error-fatal.log`.

  What else can I do to fix/play the videos?

  I was doing the recovering process in a wrong way. With a better way of recovering, now, 1h17m of the 1h27m video is recovered. Meaning only the last 10m is *not* recovered. The details are here:
