I have several corrupted ogg files; I believe they were created several
years ago with grip, and that the corruption is not disk corruption but
just something wrong with the encoder at the time. I would rather not
have to re-rip these discs.
The error I see with ogginfo is
Warning: Hole in data (18000 bytes) found at approximate offset
702086827724505088 bytes. Corrupted ogg.
Warning: Hole in data (22500 bytes) found at approximate offset
702086827724505088 bytes. Corrupted ogg.
[etc., and then:]
Warning: sequence number gap in stream 1. Got page 4 when expecting page
1. Indicates missing data.
Warning: discontinuity in stream (1)
Warning: Could not decode vorbis header packet 1 - invalid vorbis stream (1)
[...]
Vorbis stream 1:
Total data length: 0 bytes
Playback length: 0m:00.000s
Average bitrate: nan kb/s
Logical stream 1 ended
I've googled around for an ogg corruption fixer but there doesn't seem
to be anything out there. I've tried rewriting them with mencoder and
ffmpeg, but it doesn't make any difference (and I see similar errors
during the rewrite).
Is there really no tool to repair corrupted ogg files? Would just
removing the header possibly fix the problem? If so, how would I do
that? Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Adam
Use oggz-sort from the liboggz package. -Ivo

If that still doesn't solve it, open a bug in the tracker (trac.annodex.net) and attach or link an example file. I personally don't know of any other decent tool to fix Ogg files. -Ivo
