Are there any shareware that changes mod to avi, I have a lot of software but none that reads those mod files, or maybe someone knows whats conflicting with that software. all I no at this Point I hate mod files jbreezin@yahoo.com http://www.idovids.com |
I too have just bought this camera and spent the first entire night trying to use the software. The Cyberlink software is unstable and poor quality for such a pricey camera. The camera produces a mod file and states that it is MPEG2. But I film in 16:9 format and discovered that this camera squeezes the footage into a 4:3 format.
I was about to return this camera when I discovered the authoring software I use (Ulead MovieFactory V5.0) had a patch that addressed this issue.
So I promptly trashed this Cyberlink software and use Ulead. I firstly convert the mod files to MPEG (through export feature) before importing them for authoring into a DVD. It works well and the image quality is maintained.
Hope this helps
