Good day,

I would like to be able to recover media from the SD card.

Is this possible?

  Yes, it's possible. 

  If you're in the same local network as the pi you can ssh into it and copy the file to your computer.

  Here's how I do it, my pi's IP address is 192.168.86.22, you would substitute your pi's IP.

  Also I'm using a Mac, windows may be a different process. My media asset is called "main-menu.mp4"

  you would substitute your file's name in the commands below.

  ```

  $ ssh pi@192.168.86.22

  ```

  Once you're connected to your pi you can check for your file. It's located under /home/pi/media

  To copy it to your computer you can use the SCP network protocol.

  ```

  scp pi@192.168.86.22:/home/pi/media/main-menu.mp4 ~/Downloads

  ```
