Repairing any type of corruption and damage in H264 MOV videos requires a defined approach. Remo Repair MOV can effectively repair h264 files by separating the audio and video streams of a copy file.

A background on H264 files

H264 is actually a video codec that is commonly used in MOV and MP4 container files. The biggest advantage of using H264 codec lies in its performance; meaning it provides a better quality video at a given bit rate. Sounds complicated? This example will help you understand the concept better.

A DVD with MPEG-2 format can store a 2-hour video, whereas using H264 format, a 4-hour video of the same quality can be stored. Due to this ‘better quality less storage’ advantage, H264 files are used in a wide variety of applications including HDTV’s, HD DVD’s, iTunes, Internet video etc.

What causes H264 files to become unplayable or corrupt?

Although H264 videos offer a ton of advantages like better quality, it does not mean it’s exempt from generic issues, corruption and damage. H264 video format is just like any other type of format in terms of vulnerability to corruption. It could be due to multiple reasons as explained below.

  • Recording or shooting videos when the battery is low
  • Pulling out the storage device when transfer is in progress or if your system turns OFF suddenly during a transfer
  • Bad sectors on the storage media where H264 video files are stored
  • Using the memory card containing videos in multiple cameras or devices may alter the file system and lead to corruption

When H264 files are corrupted due to any of these reasons, a number of symptoms can show up. You may find that there are audio video sync problems; audio might be missing when playing the video or vice versa, video may show up with huge random pixels etc. It’s not necessary that you see all of these symptoms, but even if one of these exists, it can be a sign of corruption.
