I’m pretty sure it can still do that. Like if you can trick it into playing something that isn’t even video, it’ll shit out whatever it can interpret as video. Which of course will be garbled nonsense, but it did exactly what you asked.
My camera shat out an MP4 without a moov atom and VLC nor anything else could play it :( Not even when inserted in the middle of a valid file of the same format.
Yes, ffplay can interpret it as rawvideo when asked but so can it /dev/random
MP4 is decent at this, it’s the camera’s fault for writing critical information at the end and not retrying on SD write errors. A bad couple of frames is still preferrable to losing up to 20 minutes (yes, that’s the split size, and it loses 5 seconds in between).
Which of course will be garbled nonsense, but it did exactly what you asked.
Is it possible that someone took a copy of hitlers book, shoved it into VLC, took the video it spit out, and somehow we got a president from that process? Garbled nonsense. Highly racist. But it did what you asked!
Wait…does this explain Mark Zuckerberg? They put a piece of cellery, mixed with dog shit, and out comes Mark Zuckerberg who’s almost a real boy?

Some files are more particular than others about being closed properly.

I wish every program was this way. Fuck off with your file format restrictions, I know what Im doing
Audacity does as well and I use it to edit pictures sometimes.
Yes pictures.
You can get some interesting effects from it.
Interesting…
