    What Causes Corruption in MP4 & MOV Files?

    Loss of internet connectivity while the video file is downloading

    Sudden power loss when the media file is playing in VLC or other apps

    Inappropriate or incomplete read or write operation may lead to error message

    Damaged video files can be due to compression issues

    Files downloaded via unreliable internet resources might not play

    Method# 2: Replicate Video File to Gain Accessibility

    Follow the steps below:

    Step 1: To begin, create a copy of the original MP4 or MOV files

    Step 2: Rename the video file to AVI

    Step 3: Now, launch the VLC player

    Step 4: Select VLC, then Preferences, and then click on Input or Codecs

    Step 5: Then click on Save in the bottom section of the Preferences window

    Step 6: Now, select Always Fix next to Repair AVI Files

    Hi, I think you can try converting it to other formats or manually modifying its format parameters. To get the things done, you might use Joyoshare Video Cutter. Such a tool is what I am using for video editing. It also provides an option to change codec, resolution, frame rate, bit rate, etc to repair a corrupt video file.
