Hi!

I have very a simple question. How to recover a .ogv file on my /home ext4 partition?

I overwrote the .ogv file (I confused input and output in Arista transcoder).

I did research.

TestDisk can undelete files on FAT and NTFS, but not on EXT4.
PhotoRec does not support .ogv recovering.
Foremost also does not support .ogv

More info:

The file is located at: /home/gasper/Video/Webcam/2011-02-02-181200.ogv
