[UPDATE]: FIXED by
@RinCat 😍 Thanks you all for feedback! 👍
---
So, I had a kernel panic while I was recording a video tutorial with OBS, and I had to hard reboot the computer because everything froze. Unfortunately, the ongoing record before the crash was corrupted at reboot.
It's an important piece of the video, and I can't retake it. So it ruined my long video tutorial... 😭

I tried to recover it using ffmpeg, but as it seems, it cannot be done. An important part of the file is missing.
I would also suggest to either use MKV or TS format instead of MP4. I had so many issues with corrupted data using MP4, especially with long recordings. This never happened to me with MKV. I simply convert it to MP4 after recording using ffmpeg.

I tried using this software to "uncorrupt", readable but not great result

MPV can read the file, try on your own, you may have better result with the whole file

For future reference, you can configure obs to record MP4s that are more resilient against crashes. https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/how-to-fix-mp4-mov-files-corrupting-when-obs-studio-crashes.1293/

It is repairable (maybe) but you will need to perhaps have another good video from the same source to reference.
Search for "moov atom not found" and see which is best for you depending on operating system. Sometimes, the repair tools are not free!

PS: maybe ffmeg as an option to ignore some errors?

The solution: using a command line tool named untrunc https://github.com/ponchio/untrunc , RinCat in the thread fixed the mp4 with it.

Is this a part of a larger or a chunk of a recording? 91MB is really small for a long video.

Yes, this is the segment 'F' and crashed after 30min afair , I usually try to not exceed recording session of 1h.
