    I recorded a video of a important meeting/conference which was about 30 minutes long. But after i had recorded it, and when i went to check back it wasn't playable by my phone (HTC Desire) and isn't playable on my computer. I am assuming the files is corrupt, and i can play all other files as i have pretty much most codecs installed and it doesn't work on VLC either. Other 3gp files do work. The video will not convert with total video converter.
    As this is an important video, I'm willing to go through alot to sort it out if i can.
    Done lots with videos and such in the past so should be able to help out if you could.
    I can provide any information, such and MediaInfo and such.
    Thank you so much if you can help!

    Thanks!
    Have tried all of the pc apps with no luck.
    Have already tried stellar but will try Treasured as it looks promising.
    Thanks Dave, i'll post back with results.

    The same has happened to me, but no recovery software has helped. I recorded my kids at their first spelling bee on my nexus one, but while I was watching the video on my phone, I accidently deleted it, and somehow corrupted the file. Now it just shows as a file that is in 3gp format but is only at 0kb and unplayable. Please help, this is one video I really need to get out of the dog house! Thanks!
