FAQ
What if I don't have a reference file?
You can try repair without a reference when the file still has readable metadata. For an interrupted recording, record a short clean clip with the same OBS settings and try reference-assisted repair. Results depend on the damage and how closely the reference matches.
Will this work on my file?
StreamSalvage is designed for interrupted OBS MP4 recordings, but recovery is not guaranteed. Missing video data, disk damage, or incompatible settings can prevent a repair. Check the free preview before buying.
Is my video uploaded anywhere?
Never. StreamSalvage runs 100% on your machine. Your files never leave your PC.
What if it doesn't work?
We offer a full refund — no questions asked. Email support@streamsalvage.com.
Does this work for non-OBS recordings?
Other interrupted MP4 recordings may be repairable when their media data survives and a compatible reference clip is available. Support and results vary by device, codec, and file damage.
