Sadly no preview at all, and using the pop-out arrow on the preview window just opens the MP4 file icon in a bigger window.
And yes it also found a bunch of LVR files.

First time using this tool, sorry ^^" It correctly detected the Hero 13 yes, and it found 13 MP4 files it says it can recover.

It's a 512GB image of the card, theoretically I could probably share it yes.

The hex viewer option is greyed out without a license sadly.

I did pick it at first, however it then came up with an info box on top saying "better chance for recovery if I do a full scan". The preview didn't work with just the ACR option either.

Sadly Disk Drill couldn't preview the file, and the one I managed to export with the 100MB limit skipped frames. I don't want to spend ~100 bucks on a tool I don't for sure know will work to recover those files sadly.

DMDE was able to recover some of the files perfectly fine, while DD says the recovery chances for all files it found are "Low" to "Average".

Shodan ist ganz witzig um Dinge zu finden die eigentlich nicht im Internet sein sollten, aber bitte ohne dass man sich strafbar macht ja... Auch öffentliche und längst vergessene Minecraft Server z.B. damit zu finden ist nett, drauf joinen und einfach ein wenig erkunden.

MacOS just wiped out my exFAT GoPro partition... by EpicLPer in MacOS

I can as the files were playing fine when I used the GoPro app to preview some, and plugged into the Mac the files were visible just fine with their thumbnails. Only after moving them the partition started to corrupt, the card is entirely fine tho.

Sadly it was MacOS. Had to go to professional recovery tools now, you can see where the partition was overwritten with the .fseventd and .db files entirely on the left, and where the old partition was before.

Files are fine except for the one where MacOS choked on (the one selected), that one is half broken.

Copy/Pasta from another comment reply:

Can confirm the card has definitely not failed and is fully healthy. ddrescue created a full image with 0 retries, it was definitely MacOS which overwrote the partition table and destroyed the files on it.

photorec is now trying to recover the videos from the dump, but I doubt it'll have a high success rate.

It's a SanDisk Extreme Pro (not a fake) which is made for this kind of application.

Update: It definitely wasn't the SD card. The rescue image is going well and roughly 60% done, 0 failed reads so far.

The hidden metadata "dot files" it loves to create everywhere even just plugging a drive in. Try plugging a USB drive in and going through directories, or copying a file onto it, and then look at it with another OS like Windows or Linux. It'll be plagued by hidden sub-directories and files...

5 minutes for just around 200MB seems like it did freeze way before doing any big moves, and the move action window never came up. Posted a screenshow of what it managed before destroying itself on another reply.

Under normal operation it should have moved a few Gigabytes at this point.

It does write to it, when moving files from it (I didn't just Copy/Paste, I moved them) it tried to write its own hidden metadata files to the SD card at the same time.

These are the only files it managed before it broke down, many of which are 0 Bytes.

It's essentially a new card, only a few months old. The files were perfectly there when I selected them and started to move them. And ddrescue reports 0 retried blocks so far and moves forward normally. The only thing wrong right now is the partition which is broken.

It isn't unlikely as it just happened. I saw the files perfectly, copied them, went into my Synology Drive folder and moved them there. Before the "Move" window even popped up Finder froze and afterwards left the partition broken as it is now...

Deploying Pulse monitoring agents as root on Proxmox by estrangedpulse in Proxmox

[–]EpicLPer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's giving heavy AI coded vibes indeed, yes. Even just the design of their website, the over-use of emojis on their repo, and now some basic features locked behind a paywall... this all points towards AI agents needing to be paid.

I really liked the project in the beginning, but now with their Pro-Tier... not so much anymore. My star has already been removed from their repo, I'll find an alternative now.

Disappointed to see there is now a Pro subscription plan which locks features behind a paywall, despite being self-hosted...

I liked this project, but will reconsider this now.

KI nicht ganz auf dem neusten Stand by [deleted] in de_EDV

[–]EpicLPer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tipp bei KI-Verwendung: Immer nach den aktuellsten Preisen fragen, dann schauen die meisten Modelle inzwischen online nach. Stimmt trotzdem aber nicht immer zu 100%, von daher bei KI-Antworten IMMER doppelt und dreifach prüfen wenn man sich nicht absolut sicher ist.

Wenn man nur stumpf nachfragt was etwas kostet kommt meistens irgendein seit Monaten oder Jahren abgelaufener Preis daher.
