Video Saver version 8, corrupted files

Stefan-Trngren wrote on 7/23/2026, 6:26 AM

Hello. I've started to have an issue with this program lately that I haven't had before. After having transferred a video to the computer, when I click on start video editing, the video often gets corrupted, both the video and audio. So let's say the video is 25 minutes long, it ends up being a 10 minute video with both broken audio and video playing at about 2x speed. This happens about half the time, which is very frustrating, because I then have to retransfer until it turns out alright. I have tried to both have automatic scene recognition checked and not, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Has anyone else had this, and whether yes or no, do you have any idea what is wrong and any workarounds?

My first thought is to suggest you check the health and available storage space on the drive used to save the video files.

I've never experienced the symptoms you describe but they can be an indication of problems with a hard drive, either electrical or mechanical.

There are several apps which you can download and install which will check the health of hard drives. Personally, I use Hard Disk Sentinel (paid-for). Just be careful to install and use only ones which do not also install any additional software!

Are you using OneDrive by any chance? Video files should be kept on a local drive.

Thanks. I never did this because when I have tried things like this myself before I have managed to damage the computer, a previous one, I have been carefeul with my current one. I can confirm I have plenty of storage, and as for the health I have not had any other issues. The issue has been manageable since this post, but I have encountered other with this program today, so if no other solutions are presented I will look into the app you recommended.
