No audio when movies transferred to my iMAC G5

I figured out how to get iMovie to import my camcorder files (I had to change the .MOD extensions of the files to .mpeg). However, I have no audio with the movies whether I play them with iMovie or Quicktime. Am I doing something wrong?

I have a panasonic pv-gs32 minidv camcorder and trying to figure out how to connect it to my new 27 in imac to create movies. do i need to download to dvd first or can I import video directly from camera?

You can import directly to your imac using usb or firewire. Connect the camera using either of the interfaces and then open up imovie in your applications folder. Once open go to the file menu and then down to import from camera and then your can import from the window that comes up. If you need any more information you can get video tutorials from the help menu. Hope this helps.

Transfer videos from camera to external hard drive

How to deal with your camcorder video in more ways?

If you got a JVC camcorder, or Panasonic camcorder or Canon MOD camcorder, you would have probably encountered such issue--- what to do with the MOD/TOD files----the God forsaken video format? And you want to convert the recorded .MOD file type to mpeg, avi, mkv, flv, mp4, wmv or whatever more common, so that you can put them on Youtube, Myspace, Google video and Hulu later on to share the camcorder video with your friends or more people? And there is another headache thing is that most major video editing suites seem to unwillingly accept the MOD/TOD format. Even windows video maker, I have to say it's too complicated to use

Someone successfully made it simply by changing the extension from .mod to mpg, but for most people, they just failed only to find there is no audio after the extension is changed, or the changed one doesn’t allow you to import these files into Windows movie maker, not to mention upload some video to Youtube.com or Facebook.

any alternativs? There is a very simple program that convert .mod NOT ONLY to mpg but many others like avi, mkv, flv, mp4, wmv, rm, rmvd, mov, dv, mg2 and swf. MOD converter is the one shoot all the trouble. This excellent mod conversion tool is not just a converter but also a video editing tool. From now on, with the MOD converter, you can enjoy your mod video on many media player, even on portable devices like blackberry, Gphone, PSP, Creative Zen,etc.
