How to repair damaged videos

I had made several recordings for a course, and when I was about to upload them, I was surprised to find out they were all damaged. I cannot open the videos at all.

I tried using a couple of video repairing software (vlc and stellar) to try and fix/repair the vids, but to no avail. What do you suggest I should do? Editing the original videos takes a while.

Even trying to play the video on QuickTime shows the alert below:

QuickTime Player can't open "lecture1.mp4".

Thanks

    Hi;

    I'm sorry to near that;

    First my advise in my classes:

    Backing up the file is more impotant than creating it!

    So say this five times every morning !

    Now it's time to send your file for more checking.

    Regards;

    Hey @MikeM
    , I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm not an expert on this at all, but maybe it'll work with another player or computer? It could also be faster to re-record them if it's not too much. Good luck!!
