Tod Converter for Mac – tod is an informal name of tapeless video format that is used only by high-definition camcorder range of JVC camcorder (I.E JVC Everio). The JVC is such a camcorder that can use both the MPEG-2 and AVCHD format, while iMovie won’t work natively with AVCHD video and MPEG-2 files produced by these cameras. The propertied format also put many other video editing programs like adobe premiere pro 1.5, Finalcut Pro, Windows movie maker(windows) in a embarassed situation for their incapability to understand it.
There are ways to import the .Tod into your Mac, but you must convert them to another format (DV or MPEG-4, for example) to work with them in iMovie. When importing these AVCHD files into iMovie or Final Cut Express, they are converted to the Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC).These AIC files consume a lot of storage space on your Mac, and editing them requires a fair amount of processing power!?you need an Intel-based Core Duo processor or better.
