Because you can't repair mp4 files that have a missing moov atom.

If the file didn't finalize, it's toast. This is why we don't recommend recording direct to mp4. Record to flv or mkv and remux after.

There isn't, you might be able to salvage some frames, but fully recovering an mp4 isn't really possible.

I recommend additional options: OBS Studio doesn't want to stop recording. But the issue is rarely happen. Not a big deal if you try to record other format and then remux it to MP4 (if your editing software only supports MP4, for example). Also, some corrupted recordings may be unrecoverable at all (some hw faults and crashes).

Would be nice to integrate this code into the Remux option of the obs (if it works, of course... most recent fork https://github.com/chundongwang/untrunc is Jun 2016 as I see).

Edit: the current version of the untrunc needs to be rewritten, at least to prevent loading whole movie as objects into the memory.

Edit2: ...and multi-track not supported. Now, I think, there is no sense to implement it into the OBS Studio. Some experimental code, fully rewritten: https://github.com/SuslikV/untrunc-w
