Okay so aaaaaaages ago I filmed some pretty funny party stuff. I was about 14 at the time, and it involved various amounts of alcohol and weed (I have to declare that I didn't touch the weed). Anyway as my parents used my PC quite alot I tried everything I could to hide these videos and I changed many things like permissions. I wasn't very good with computers back then y'see. Cut a long story short, i've found an old back-up hard drive and i've found the videos, however now the writing is green and they're slightly opaque (like when you "cut" a file) and they won't play. Windows Media Player gives an error that they cannot be played, VLC won't play them and they're all .mpeg files. Any ideas anyone? I do have a reason for wanting to watch them.. |

Windows marks encrypted files on NTFS with green writing... maybe that's it? |

Ah well never mind. Extensive googling has come up with nothing. The videos were poor quality anyway, and were meant for a memorial video (one of my friends was killed recently) but I guess if all the clips are "parent-safe" then they can be shown more freely to people who aren't just her schoolfriends. |
