Trouble shooting for MOD file player


Recently I just bought Canon FS20 dualmemory internal and SDHC card. The device is very cute and easy to use event for my childreen. Suddently they just enjoying taking some pictures and videocam using it. They take everything to give their "grandmother" video about our family and doha for next holiday.

Problem was come when time to transfering files to PC and play them. the problem is with File extention .MOD that generated by Canon camcoder for video files. no ones video player can play this extion file. After searching some information here step by step for the Tip & Trick to solve it.

1. Plug your SDHC card that recorder video and picture from Canon camcode to PC Card Reader.
2. Just Copy all file with extion file.Mod to Folder in your PC/netbook.
3. Change the exstention filename from filename.MOD to be filename.mpg just using "rename" file feature. Your video file become Mpeg-2 now.
But don't be happy because if you play using Real Player or Windows Media player will not working and you will getting error that you must donwload " “DirectShow-compatible MPEG-2 decoder”. But don't worry follow next step for solution.
