Help with broken AVI container (DivX5 stream)

[PhakeDC]

I have this AVI on a faulty CD, and regardless what recovery apps I use it breaks off at one point, so I dumped an image and about of 93% of the video can be played back in MPC. The funny bit is that VirtualDub in all its wisdom tries to reconstruct the index and fails to yield more than a minute of the original video! I tried Fraps to directly record video but it can't achieve full 25 FPS on my Athlon XP, I don't want to keep using MPC to view the movie and reconstruct the AVI everytime.

Is there a good cutter tool that will just harness more of the footage than VirtualDub could?

Thanks for any replies!

if mplayer can play part of it, then perhaps mplayer -dumpstream can save what it can play. If not, your best bet is to return to the source and recreate your backup.

Even Far better than VirtualDub, it correct all videos that i downloaded with problems(audio sync on my dvd player)
Vdub can´t correct some, and it done the work good
