    this sucks. i need to get footage to spain asap. ex3 recording to sdhc, and i’m missing the last 10-15 minutes of a clip. i ran the preliminary check with Treasured and it looks like the footage is recoverable. but i’m pressed for time. at this point i don’t care what it costs, i just want a reconstructed bpav as fast as possible.

    i’m thinking about Tekserve, but i’d be grateful for some proven suggestions for a recovery service that knows something about bpav files.

    thanks in advance. did i mention, this sucks.

    https://www.aeroquartet.com/ turnaround time is too slow?
    I’m not sure you can “rush” file recovery.

    I’m confused because you mentioned reconstructing the BPAV. Is it just the BPAV metadata corrupted or the .mp4 itself?

    i have a bpav for a 13 minute clip, that should be a 25 – 28 minute clip. i need a complete deliverable, not just an .mp4.

    yes, i need a faster turn-around, if possible.
