What you need to know before touching a video file
I don't believe it's the case anymore, but it was very common for VLC to cause video corruption (see [1] for example of what it looked like) in the past, the hate just stuck around and I don't think it's ever going away.

13 years since that post and this is the first time I’m hearing of this long-past issue.
Haters gonna hate I guess.

It has never been very common for VLC to cause video corruption.
