I spent a couple hours on my computer when this happened, and eventually got the result I wanted. got a pretty serious door ding and dent, here is what happened.
1. Got back to car, noticed dent.
2. Went home, reviewed sentry footage. 7 events left a lot of footage to view, but it didn't take long to narrow it down to the offending vehicle. Watched footage of the offending vehicle pull in next to car. Watched mom get out of car, then the footage cuts out. When it resumes the entire family is behind their vehicle getting ready to walk away! It missed the ~20 seconds of video I needed where the rear door opened!
3. Start researching online, find that Tesla saves all video clips from last hour, etc. Immediately run an undelete app on the USB drive.
4. Recover ~400 video clips, 2 clips were corrupt. It was pretty obvious from scrolling through the previews that one of the 2 corrupt video files was the one with the footage I needed.
5. Tried 1,000 ways to view the file all worthless. Ready to give up, finally try 1,001 method to watch video and it works! Literally the video covers about 25 seconds of the missing footage. Pay $6 for video corruption fix.
6. Send video to offenders insurance, they take responsibility and agree to pay for the damage!
Sentry mode is awesome, and I wish this had worked more flawlessly, but i'm excited nonetheless. No other car would have been able to do what my Tesla did!
