Clean and simple GUI, preview option, faster speed, and ability to repair compressed video files makes it our top pick. Moreover, the Stellar software can repair multiple video files of same or different formats at a time – a feature that significantly saves your time and energy when you have several corrupt videos.

The software can fix non-playing videos, issues in sound, header, movement of video, and video slider etc. In case of severely corrupt videos, it automatically gives the option to perform ‘Advance Repair’ using the sample file (working video file created from the same device and of the same format). The feature is an asset as it repairs extremely damaged videos, which would otherwise be lost due to severe corruption.

Pros

· Batch repair present

· Preview option available

· Demo versions repairs half of the video file size

Cons

· Limited file format support

· Limited camera models support

· Cannot fix sound issues

· Unable to repair over 2GB videos

Grau GmbH Video Repair delivers what it promises. The video repair tool successfully repairs four file formats and fixes most of the issues in the corrupt videos of popular cameras. The interface is easy to use. You can easily fix truncated, broken or not playing videos. The software has a good repair success rate compared to other applications. However, if you are looking for a tool that repairs sound issues in the video files, then Grau is not the right pick. It does not fixes out-of-sync or other sound issues in videos.

Grau GmbH Video Repair has a limited camera support, although you can send your request to the developer to add your camera model in the application, if it is not in the supported list. But then who is ready to wait for that long (it may take weeks), if you need to repair the videos now.

Also, the software does not repair video files above 2GB, which is a major drawback. Videographers and cinematographers, who have mostly big files to work upon, may not find it useful.

On the price front, $33 for just five video repairs can be an expensive trade for many.

File format support: AVI, DivX, and XVID

Price: $69.97

Pros

· Easy to use

Cons

· Batch repair absent

· Limited video file format support

Remo Repair AVI has a simple user interface to fix corrupt AVI, DivX, and XVID videos. The software efficiently repairs broken, damaged or truncated videos stored in any kind of drives and media. You can also preview the repaired video files before saving.

However, unlike Stellar and Grau repair utilities, it cannot fix multiple videos in one go. This can be annoying as you repeat the repair process for each file, in case of multiple corrupt videos.

Although the software comes with lifetime license at $69.97, it may not be the best bargain with limited features and file support.

File format support: MOV, MP4, and M4V

Price: $69.95

Pros

· Easy to use

· Fixes audio issues

Cons

· Batch repair absent

· Need reference file for each video

Simple and easy to use Yodot MOV Repair
supports MOV, MP4, and M4V video files saved in any hard drive, SD card, pen drive etc. The software fixes both video and audio issues in broken or truncated videos. Yodot too offers preview of the repaired videos.

On the downside, for every corrupt video, Yodot MOV Repair asks for a working video file as a reference file. While software like Stellar Repair for Video only use reference file when the videos are severely corrupt. Also absence of batch repair to fix multiple videos in one go is a pain point.

Pros

The software fixes damaged, broken videos that do not play properly. However, it does not work well on severely corrupt videos.

Remember, while buying a video repair software you mostly trade one feature for another, such as supported file formats, batch repair, or OS support.

Nevertheless, always pick the one that supports your corrupt videos’ file formats, easy to use, and of course has a good repair success rate.
