Recovering files with errors skipping media errors (whatever media is CD, DVD, HD…)
This quick tip will not fix any phisical error in any file, but will help to copy it somewhere else.
(In Debian this commands comes in coreutils package)
user@debian-machine:~$ dd if=/path/to/file/origin of=/path/to/file/destiny cond=noerrors
Why this should work
Multimedia programs usually have problems playing files which present some kind of error accesing the media where the file is stored.
Although some of the bits lost could barely represent a frame of a film, the other BIG part is still there but the multimedia program stops or whatever. So, if we “move” the file from media this problems could disapear and we can still play and enjoy our lovely film.
PD: I wonder why I didn’t publish this before. I searched for it in the blog some days ago. Today, trying to release a bunch of draft post, I found it, weha!!
