Apparently, this is irrecoverable. The data is pretty consistent, but the files were apparently recorded "fragmented", i.e. stored in several nonadjacent disk blocks. On a FAT filesystem, it is not possible to recover a fragmented file once it has been deleted.

Thanks Alexey for your time and answer, do you think there is a other solution for this, or is this just impossible. The movies are from a vacation.. so very imported for me. any suggestion you have is welcome.

Kind regards

I'd say irrecoverable with current technology - just impossible.
