Answer 1

JVC Everio & Panasonic D-Snap create 2 files for each video clip: MOD file (consists of Video-MPEG2-PS & Audio-Dolby Digital AC-3) & MOI file (info like date/time & video clip aspect ratio 4:3 or 16:9).

The .MOD file extension can be renamed to .MPG to view the footage; however, audio-AC3 will not accompany the file. When split, clips can't be imported into video editing application w/o first using another app–> to create a unified MPEG-2 file.

Check clarification on JVC .mod, together w/Carol's helpful learnings on MOD conversion using Prism. http://www.dotwhat.net/lang_eng/files_m/...

These video editing apps accept direct import of .MOD files w/o conversion: JVC supplied Cyberlink:Power Director Xpress, Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0, Avid Liquid 7.2, Sony Vegas 7.0e.
