Field notes
The workflow separates discovery from recovery: a card or drive is unmounted, read end to end, and represented as a list of recoverable files before any output is written. Video previews use six watermarked frames distributed across a clip’s full length, while recovery produces a separate validated file and a hash report. The page lists exFAT, FAT16/32, NTFS, HFS+, and APFS support, with encrypted volumes requiring the owner’s password or recovery key.
