A: MOD is the file extension for the video file format used on many camcorders, such as the JVC Everio, and the Panasonic D-Snap SD-card camcorders.
And Windows Movie Maker is a video creating/editing software by microsoft, when importing files into the program, user can either choose to "capture Video" (from camera, scanner or other device) or "Import video" to import existing video files into the user's collections, but Windows Movie Maker accepted formats for import are .WMV/.ASF, .MPG (MPEG-1), .AVI (DV-AVI), .WMA, .WAV, and .MP3 only, so if you want to put MOD TOD files to Windows Movie Maker and edit it, you must import MOD to Windows Movie Maker and convert it to WMM compatible format as AVI WMV.
