Hi,
I'v been recording my table top RPG sessions with OBS for the past few weeks. Last week I recorded about 8hrs of footage (just Skype audio capture and Roll20). I'v recorded 6 and 9 hr long sessions before with no issues (coming in at around 8-13GB).

I started compressing the videos with Handbreak last night. All of the videos compressed well except for the one I recorded last week. I have not changed any settings between sessions. I put the log file in PasteBin because it was too large to post here: http://pastebin.com/zy5kSVKD

Does anyone have any advice on how I might recover this video or is this just 11GB of trash data now?

Thanks.

The file is likely corrupt. Record to FLV to avoid such problems in the future.

Ok. I was hoping for some way to re-encode the data and that maybe the file was just missing a header or footer or something.

When you say to record to FLV do you just mean changing the file path to save the file with a .flv extension instead of .mp4 in the Broadcast Settings? Are there any other encoding or video settings that I need to change?
