  • onstream-data-recovery

    A repository detailing data recovery of OnStream tapes.

  • The data format is documented at a high level here:

    https://github.com/Kneesnap/onstream-data-recovery/blob/main...

    It's a linear, 192-track format that's read 8 tracks at a time. The other files in that repo are also worth reading.

  • JPEGsnoop

    JPEGsnoop: JPEG decoder and detailed analysis

  • Are they really JPEGs and MP3s, or just bitrot?

    I've found https://github.com/ImpulseAdventure/JPEGsnoop useful to fix corruption but I haven't come across a non-standard JFIF JPEG unless it was intentionally designed to accommodate non-standard features (alpha channel etc).
