Re: rror message: "File does not contain a valid Avid domain header"

Try this:

You have a recovered project, lets call it Project01. It won't open. At the OS level, move all your Avid projects out of the Shared folder and put them somewhere else for safekeeping, temporarily.

Open Avid and make a new project. Call it Project01. Close Avid. Go to the Shared folder and you'll see that Project01 was made. Open it. Now open the Project01 folder you recovered using the DataRescue program. Copy all the bins from the original Project01 to your new Project01. Open Avid, open Project01 (the new one you just made), and see if all of your bins are there and work.

By making new projects with the same name and copying just the bins over, all the media in your original Project01 will maintain it's relationships to your new Project01, and since it's the project that seems corrupt but not the bins you should be in business.

Let me know if this works.
