Modern media players support a wide range of audio/video formats. Nowadays, a single application includes support for hundreds of digital image, audio, and video file formats. If you need to recover a file type not supported by Stellar Photo Recovery, you can add that specific file header to the software's inbuilt database of supported file formats. The software is able to recognize your added file type and recover all media files belonging to that specific type.
