Hello,
I recently noticed that some of my vorbis-files are corrupt, and I'm sure they
weren't before. I have no idea how this could happen.
Now my question is: is this vorbis' fault or is it more likely that my (still
present) Windows-Installation destroyed the data? (Or even worse: my harddisk's
corrupt) The files are on a FAT32-Partition, created with Vorbis-1.0-final
under linux.
The other question is: is there a way/tool to restore the data?
Here's what ogginfo gives me (for 2 of the corrupt files; one of them is very
small (108K); if you want me to I can post it/mail it):
Processing file "/oggs/Wendy - Mrs. Landers.ogg"...
