I can't seem to open this file I always get

"cannot identify file type from header"

Here is a link to downlaod the file, its about 5 meg. (compresed)

http://www.unitz.ca/dvd.rar

Any help would be greatly apreciated.

Thanks

I do not know what happened, but it seems that the beginning of the file has been cut. I can maybe try to get it back, except of course the part of the file that is missing.

I quickly made a tool for such cases, since it is not the first time that it happens. At least in the next case I'll be able to quickly recover the catalog.
It seems that only the first movie of the list was lost.
You were using versioon 3.5.0.2 ?

Here is the corrected file: http://www2.antp.be/antp/temp/cef123.rar

Thanks for the quick response.

Yes im using ver 3.5.0.2

I downloaded the corrected file. I just oppened it and it not only missing the 1 but it missing every after the letter H, about 100 movies. can these be saved ?

Hmm I did not check the end of the list Well that means that somewhere in the file there is another error. Maybe that the beginning of the list was overwritten partially, but I really wonder how it could happen.
It is quite more difficult to recover, and I do not really have few hours to try to correct the file, sorry
You do not have a .bak file in the same folder? Maybe you could rename it to .amc and get the list as it was before the last save.

I renamed the .bak file and everything was there but the last changes.

Thanks again for all your help.
