    Well I had made a video with my webcam and it was a working avi. Later on my computer crashes and I format the HD but am able to restore the avi file with recovery software. I reinstalled all the codecs I once had but the avi file is not recognized by any media players and I can't check the properties. I have tried converting the file to other media files and still nothing. All I was able to get was the first frame from the video but nothing plays. Any ideas on how to get the avi working?

    Well I used the program and it gave some errors at different frames. It looks like it plays a few more frames now but thats it. Guess there is no way of repairing the file
