Does anyone know if Recuva could misinterpret video compression during the recovery process and mislabel video files? In this case video files were changed from MPEG-4 to WMV.
Background information-
We have an SD card that was used in a stealth camera. The camera has been tested and saves video onto the SD card in a MPEG4 format. The files were deleted from the SD card. Using Recuva we were able to retrieve the video files that had been deleted however, now they are WMV files.
Our timestamps indicate that the recovered files are the files of interest and no other cameras or options exist at this point to explain how the MPEG-4 deleted files have magically turned into WMV files during the recovery process.
Has anyone else ran into this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for your time.
