File pointer restore on DVD

Hi.
I made a mistake while using a new DVD write program and now have 2 large files on a DVD that I deleted accidentally.
I see programs that recover data but they recover it to a different place.
What I want is a free program (or trial program with full features) that will just re-establish the pointers (directory) to those 2 files on that DVD.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thx
Bob

Here is some shareware DVD repair software.

Hope that works for you (I've never used it).

Thx BartonC, but it did not work for 2 reasons.
1 - Trial version only allows files of minimum size to be recovered. Sure wish these 'free trial' versions would state their limitations before downloading and installing!
2 - Did not see any destination option where just leave files where they are and repair/restore the pointer to them.
But thx anyway.
