Frustrated, tired, and mad
Once again I failed to complete a project that actually works. This was for my daughters school project.
I could live to be 100 years old and not care less about "dolby digital"
The dolby prevents the .mods to be renamed as .avi or .mpgs AND transfer the sound with them.
1)Is there a way to disable the "dolby"?
2) what is the fastest, cleanest,easiest way to convert these blasted .mod files to something workable like MPG or avi? (throughput trumps quality)

I have the "boxed" ultra-lite (whatever) version of PD It works, and is not too bad.
Getting my completed version to actually, mechanically burn to a disc is utter failure. a few months ago I was successful, so it probably is not the comp or burner. I use "End it all" before I start PD. (nothing else running)do my project ,and try to burn it via PP. best it has done is 92% and the whole thing lays down.
I have studio 9 (for my previous camera) but it does not know what a .mod is, and sucks to convert so many things before you can actually do some editing.
3) can someone suggest a program that REALLY burns DVD's? I mean even if I have "muck" in a file it will burn as I command?
4) the home addy of the person that convinced JVC that a stupid format such as .mod was a good idea?

Thanks

When you have finished creating your video, click Produce, then select the 'Create A File' button, you should then have the option of selecting AVI or MPEG

Hope that works for you

I see you are having problems with Dolby Digital files shot on an Everio camera, the only version of PowerDirector that can edit them is Version 6.

As regards changing the file extension from MOD to MPG, this is not necessary if you are using PowerDirector. John
