Card failure - files there -- can't read them

[DNathan]

I've got most of the files I need. I tried copying the Private folder to a blank card, and it won't play on the camera. Per the pic I'm missing two of the mts files, thumb.tid, thumb.tdt, movieobj.bdm, index.bdm, and 00000.mpl from the playlist. I can copy everything but the mts files from another card. I just don't know if those would be identical or specific to the video files.



I've tried the AVCCAM SD Card file recovery v1.1. It said that it worked, but when I tried to transcode the new folder and it gives me the error that the folder contains unsupported media or an invalid file structure.

Thoughts?

Also I'm not able to copy the recovered Private folder to a blank SD card. I get the error: The operation can't be completed because an item with the name "_~1.DS_" already exists.

I had a corrupted card recently - not from my HMC, but from an SD900. Every time I tried to 'Log and Transfer', FCP crashed immediately (I tried another card, this time from the HMC, and FCP worked perfectly, so I knew something was wrong with the card from the SD900). I used Toast 10 to convert the .MTS files to Apple Prores and was then able to import them directly into FCP. The corrupted clips were missing, but there were only two and I was so glad to retreive the rest that I didn't mind. Don't know if this would help in your circumatances!
