"Did not find video"
Closed this issue · 7 comments
I'm glad someone was able to write a program to do this via command line, I've been trying to do it myself! However, it doesn't seem to be working with any of the files from my phone. I opened one of my files in a hex editor and the byte sequence your config has as the MP4 header doesn't exist in my file. Is it possible that it could be a different sequence we need to look for? I'd be happy to provide one of my files for testing if that would help.
I'm on a Pixel 2 fwiw.
Yes I have the same problem, with pixel2 it doesn't find the video file. I attached an example.
Hi Alex and WizOfWas, thanks for trying out my application.

Do you have a sample image I could look at? The upload would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the upload. I've extracted the video on the phone, so hopefully I can work out what's going on.
May I include your snail in the test-image of the project?
I've resolved WizOfWas image in version 1.2
I've also tried to add a better approach to search for the start of the mp4 binary format for you Alex. If it still has no success, I would appreciate your moving photo.

Yes, I believe there is a different sequence to find. I've allowed the .config file to have as many options as desired. It's possible to add as many new keys that have the "Mp4Header_" as the start.
<add key="Mp4Header_iso6mp42iso6avc1" value="00 00 00 20 66 74 79 70 69 73 6F 36 00 00 00 01 6D 70 34 32 69 73 6F 36 61 76 63 31 69 73 6F 6D 00 00 03"/>
<add key="Mp4Header_mp42" value="00 00 00 18 66 74 79 70 6D 70 34 32"/>
What I know for sure, is searching for "FF D9" finds the end of the JPEG part of the file. From my reading MP4 files start with "00 00 00 " and then, from the examples from WizOfWas is then "xx 66 74 79 70" where xx has so far been either 18 or 20.
My new generic search now finds
"FF D9"
then instances of
"66 74 79 70"
then checks that "6D 70 34 32" is within the next 20 characters
then checks the four bytes prior to "66 74 79 70" are "00 00 00 xx"
Now.. explaining all that, I agree it is pretty weird, showing that I don't know the second thing about the MP4 format :)
Hi Clive, how are you? (sorry for any mistakes, english is not my primary language)
Thanks for writing this!! I'm having a problem though 😢
I've tried the app (GoMoPhoConsole.exe) and this happens (first image is the example downloaded from here). The other files "move" on Google Photos but the mp4 part is not recognized by the app, i tried with various pics without any succses.
I don't know how to atach a picture but here's a LINK .
Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you
Greetings from Argentina!
