I record with Fraps and I do Minecraft videos on YouTube. Besides the point. Sometimes, not all the time, but more times than not. When I replay the clip to myself to check it out. It says "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file" But it only happening for about a second in the file. If I just skip to the second after the part where it stops it keeps playing. I tried running it through DivXRepair, but no luck. It is a really big issue and causes me to loose very good footage because I can't even edit it out because Movie Maker won't accept the files that are messed up. I can't really call them corrupted because it's only that second it's not the whole file itself. How I record my videos is in 1080p 60fps, and the video file is recorded to a a Toshiba External hard drive through a USB 3.0 PCI Express port. Maybe it's because the file has to travel through that, but I forgot to mention it sometimes happens multiple times on a video making me wonder if it is because sometimes the USB pauses and desyncs stuff and it causes that second to be lost. Any help would be amazing! Thank you!
