• MOD to imovie format conversion- I boutgh a JVC everio HDD video cam last month. Went on a vacation and now would like to use imovie to view and play with the movie clips. Problem i am just now finding out about is that the camera takes .mod format and that is not compatible with imovie
• I have searched high and low, and found all kinds of jury rigs and contraptions, none of which seemed to work quite right, and are far too complex requiring extra software. Why can't iMovie 09 import MOD files directly? When I hook my camera directly, it imports them fine. But if I've copied the files to my hard disk first, it will not recognize them. I need a simple way to add MOD files from a hard disk into iMovie 09
