Summary: If your video files or say a bunch of MOV and MP4 video files have gone corrupt, then you should try using QuickTime Media Player to repair damage in such videos? Other than QuickTime Player, Stellar Repair for Video is a safe option to fix bad videos.
Apple QuickTime Player can be easily downloaded from the Apple’s official website, and it is available for Windows and macOS. The basic version of the QuickTime Player is free though QuickTime Player has plenty of advanced features waiting in Pro version. Some of these QuickTime Player Pro features are:
But, QuickTime Player doesn’t contain features that can help you rebuild a damaged MOV or MP4 video files. Yes, it’s true that QuickTime Player have many advanced sets of features, but that serves the purposes of playing, trimming, editing, exporting, saving, reverting, and looping video files. Unlike VLC having the ability to repair damaged .MOV and .MP4 videos , QuickTime Player, lays its hand from repairing a damaged video file.
If an MOV or MP4 video is severely damaged, then you may end up receiving QuickTime Player’s Black Screen error message. This black screen is an indication of the failure of media player in running your video smoothly. Since QuickTime Player lacks set of advanced video repair features; you will require professional MP4 and MOV video repair software.
In QuickTime Player, you can select ‘Show Movie Inspector << from Windows’ bar to know your video file details. This could be of little help because it can let you know about the details such as – Video Format + Movie FPS + Playing FPS + Data Size + Data Rate + Duration + Pixels Information etc. If your video is damaged and QuickTime flashing black screen error, then the Movie Inspector will let you know about the distortion in the video file’s metadata (if any).
When a media player, be it QuickTime Player or VLC player can’t provide enough technical features to repair a corrupt MOV or unplayable MP4 video files then download a free copy of Stellar Repair for Video Software.
