cannot import files with MOD extension

[Guest]

I have some short movie clips on a CD. They all have a file extension MOD.
The Movie maker does not import these clips for me to edit and join them all
in one movie.
Please help.

====================
I suspect the extension is .mov and you
are correct they are not compatible with
movie maker.

The following article describes
one way to convert them to a usable
format.

.... and if the extension is really .MOD, copy the file to your hard drive,
rename it to an .MPG extension and use the info on the Import Movie Source
Files > Video > Discs page of my website to convert it.
