The short version is, I have what is most likely a corrupted video file. Is there any way to recover some/all of the data and view the video?
Long version follows: I drove some 500 miles to Virginia International Raceway, hammered my Honda around the track, and thought I was going to get some video from my Replay 1080 XD camera—but then my engine fuel-starved while cornering, went into 'limp-mode' and stalled after I pitted. Since I had the camera plugged into a USB adapter for power, it shut off when the car died (probably didn't finish saving the file correctly), and I have a 1.8 gig video file which I can't view or effectively convert to anything else. The camera normally saves as .mov files, but Windows media player and Quicktime both say they can't open it since it's a codec/format they don't understand.
I'd really like to see the footage, but after some casual searches, any programs or codecs I found either don't help or are disguised viruses. Am I completely hosed?
Not sure if Oppo's cool with this, but I need some help. If it gets fixed, I'll post my sweet dodge of an Audi wagon spinning out!

I've heard the VLC media player is pretty good at playing things that are broken.
