Sandisk SD/SDXC Memory Card Data Recovery for Netflix Show Footage

A professional videographer used a Sandisk SD/SDXC memory card to store critical work data from a video shoot for a Netflix production. However, upon reviewing the footage, they encountered the following issues:

  • Photo files only displayed half the image, indicating potential file corruption.
  • Video files were unplayable, suggesting missing or corrupted data structures.
  • No backup of the footage was available, making recovery essential for the production schedule.

With a high-profile project at stake, the client required an advanced forensic data recovery solution to retrieve the lost footage and ensure the successful completion of the Netflix show.

Our Expertise in SD Card & Video Data Recovery

With 25 years of experience, our team specialises in:
✔ Recovering data from corrupted, unreadable, or partially damaged SD/SDXC cards
✔ Rebuilding fragmented and missing video file structures
✔ Using forensic-level NAND memory chip extraction for deep data recovery

Diagnosis & Recovery Process

Upon receiving the corrupted Sandisk SD card, our engineers conducted a forensic-level analysis. The key findings included:

  • Corrupted File System & Indexing Errors – The card had file system corruption, affecting media accessibility.
  • Partial Data Corruption in Photos & Videos – Likely caused by an interrupted write process or file system degradation.
  • Video Files Were Fragmented or Incomplete – Making traditional recovery methods ineffective.

To successfully recover the Netflix show footage, we implemented a multi-step forensic SD card recovery strategy:

Step 1: Secure Imaging & Data Preservation

  • Created a bit-by-bit forensic image of the SD card to prevent further corruption.
  • Ensured no additional writes to the card, maintaining data integrity.

Step 2: Deep File System Analysis & Video Reconstruction

  • Used specialized recovery software to reconstruct missing file system metadata.
  • Reassembled fragmented MP4/MOV video files from raw sectors.

Step 3: Advanced Photo & Video Data Repair

  • Applied video frame reconstruction algorithms to restore broken frames.
  • Repaired half-loaded image files by fixing incomplete JPEG/RAW metadata.

Step 4: Data Integrity Verification & Secure Transfer

  • Verified that the recovered videos were playable and images were fully restored.
  • Transferred the recovered data to a secure external SSD, ensuring safe delivery to the client.

The Result

We successfully recovered 99.3% of the client’s critical video and photo data, ensuring that:
✅ All Netflix show footage was restored and playable
✅ Corrupted photos were fully reconstructed
