The videos I can no longer play on my computer using the quicktime that was just
installed I CAN play if I upload them to Blip and play through Quicktime there.
I don't understand.

Hi, Just an update. I managed to repair the MOV file. Now I can play
back as usual. The problem lies with the values in the "mdat" nodes,
which the length of "mdat" was set to 0. After I look for the "moov"
entry, and do the necessary substraction, I manage to get everything
back in place. Luckily, only the main pointer is affected, else, I
think I will take more time to do the repair.

Thanks, Ron, for your advise.

Regards.
