Panasonic SDR camcorder mainly contains SDR-H and SDR-S two series. Most Panasonic SDR series camcorders record videos in MOD MPEG-2 which is a standard definition video format. The MOD video can playback on the media player, which has capability of reproducing MPEG-2 video. However, the video can't be compatible with Mac-compatible programs like QuickTime, iMovie, Final Cut Express, etc. Perhaps, you have already realized something is missing and been trying to find a third party software for converting the .mod shot by the camcorder to .mov which is regarded to be a FCE compatible format.
In this case, this Panasonic MOD Converter for Mac: Brorsoft SDR MOD Converter will be a brilliant choice which provides the most professional and comprehensive format converting function. In addition, a built-in editing function in this program enables you to do some editing like trim, crop, watermark, effect filter, etc. Take the Panasonic SDR-S50 for example; following tutorial will make you clear how the program works.
Preparation: Connect Panasonic SDR-S50 camcorder to iMac/Mac Book. Import the .mod MPEG-2 files that you want to deal with into hard drive.
Step 1: Load Panasonic SDR-S50 MOD footage to the best SDR-S50 MOD Converter for Mac.
Run the program as the most easy-to-use Panasonic MOD Converter for Mac. Click the "Add" button on the up-left corner of top tool bar, by clicking it or dragging the video directly you can import the .mod files to the program. Plus, multiple files are allowed to be imported altogether.
Step 2: Choose the “MOV (AVC)(*.mov)” as the output format
In the format pop-down list, navigate mouse cursor to “MOV (AVC)(*.mov)” option in the “Adobe Premiere/Sony Vegas” section to select the output format. Then, click “Export to” for setting the destination folder which the output files belongs to.
Step3: Set the codec as XVID Codec that FCE deals with
As no auto-conform sequence dialog for H.264 codec (the default codec) in Final Cut Express, you have to correct the output parameter. Click the “settings” button, change the output video codec as XVID so that FCE can recognize. Plus, you can also adjust other audio and video parameters like bitrates, frame rate, and audio channel. In principle, the larger input values, the larger file size, but accompanying with the better file quality; the smaller input value, the smaller file size, but in accordance with the more inferior file quality.
Step 4: Start converting Panasonic SDR-S50 MOD to FCE compatible format
Click the “Convert” button under the preview window, the Mac Panasonic MOD converter will start converting Panasonic SDR-S50 MOD to FCE compatible format for you. The converting process will take you several minutes.
Now, the converted files in MOV format are prepared in the destination folder. Go to import them to Final Cut Express for further editing with your own masterpieces!

It's far better than Netflix on TiVo. Not only is movie selection much nicer but Netfix on TiVo drops out, falls back to lower (and really bad) resolution and sometimes just quits. Plus �C you can stream music and show photo slideshows from your computer running iTunes. I thought it was a boring device too until I got one as a gift and started to use it. $99 for Apple TV or an extra $500 for a receiver or TV with network connectivity and fewer features. Seems like an easy choice to me. convert mkv to mp4 Honestly, the white iPhone 4 should just stay the stuff of legend. It's way too late for anyone to give a damn. If a customer really wanted an iPhone 4, they have one. Color quit being a factor after the third push back. Save white for the iPhone 5.
