YOUR AWESOME!! Thankyou so much ...to all those reading through here and having a hard time converting MOD...this works! I have a Mac, so I saved my MOD on a USB and followed these instructions using my PC...saved the MOD as an AVI ..put it back on the usb and now it works on my macbook! Sounds like a lot of work but trust me I searched for 2 hours trying to find a way without paying or downloading a sketchy program (most of which dont work/are trial versions). Do this ! It worked great for me

It’s so easy and it works!! Just take and right click click rename and delete the .MOD extension and put .MPG and there you have it. Simple as that!
GOD BLESS YOU!!! You actually saved me!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!!! Thank you so sooo much!!!
use .mpg not .mpeg
Open notepad
type the following
ren *.mod *.mpg
save this file as rename.bat to your desktop. Drag this file to the folder that has your mod files. double click and it’s done.
Simply use Format Factory @ http://www.pcfreetime.com/ it’s free and can convert between all formats and it,s quick. I hope this helps

Saunnie,
You have been of great help for me, I have been trying for figure out which software to use to edit my video today since morning and after deciding to use window movie maker the files that I downloaded from my JVC HDC had .MOI and .MOD and could not import them for editing.
Thanks for your instructions above, I have been able to convert the .MOD although it gives me worning that it might not play after I change the extension. I can now import it to window movie maker and edit them hope it wount give me a problem when burning to a CD
