I'm looking at my client, and have a few torrents that are between 99 and 99.8% finished and have been stuck like that for weeks. Anyone know of a good tool, AI or otherwise, that can "fill in" the missing bits? Wouldn't that be cool?
No. It could repair some files to make them playable, maybe, by extrapolating sections before and after, like a couple seconds missing there and there in a movie, but all bets are off as to whether it'll guess right. I'm not aware of such tool existing.
But if it's a zip file, there's no chance it can fix it. It's much different than AI upscaling, because you don't just need to find an answer that's close enough, you need the exact bits because even one value off could mean the gravity of the whole game is off, as an example. If some files are encrypted then all bets are off, as that would imply breaking encryption.
Also I'd look at what's the missing data. Sometimes you can be stuck at 99% because the only seeder left didn't download a readme file or something but the whole content is there.
Yeah, these are video files, and they're missing random bits within the file. I was just thinking that with such small gaps it wouldn't be too hard to extrapolate something close to the missing data, and just "make them playable" as you said.
