In my instance I have some videos which the files under storage/videos may have been accidentally removed, and hence a « transcode fail » message is under the video. However the video can still be played. For example this one:
When I tried to transcode it, an error box with a lengthy command was shown. I found it in the error log:
error[2022/4/3 下午6:48:52] Error in controller.

Since I could still play it on PeerTube I think there this video file must be somewhere in the system. However I couldn’t find it and didn’t know where to find it. I’d like to save those video files back.
Any suggestion? Thanks a lot.
