Got a lot of JVC Everio HDD Camcorder videos and want to impot the clips into Adobe Premiere Elements CS3. But the result is "failed", why? The reason is because the footage file formats is refused, for the program needs to be compatible with MOV video formats. In this article, let me show you the easiest way to edit JVC Everio HDD Camcorder.

Listed the most poular JVC Everio camcorder according to its shooting file formats:

About popular JVC video editing programs:

2.Windows Movie Maker
If you are used to editing video into Movie Maker, import JVC video to Windows Movie Maker becomes a problem. No matter which format MOD, TOD or AVCHD file you get, it can't be directly added into the movie maker. Suppose, you record .mod file format, you can firstly try renaming it to .mpeg-2. Anyway, it can't alway work. In the case, convert JVC video to Windows Movie Maker AVI or WMV, etc should be a safer way.

3.iMovie (For Mac users)
Actually, iMovie can support some models of JVC camcorder like GZ-HD10, GZ-HD30, GZ-HD40, GZ-MG37, GZ-MG155, etc. Firstly, check it out by visiting iMovie'11 Comcorder Camcorders. http://help.apple.com/imovie/cameras/en/index.html?lang=en_US

If you camcorder is out of the supported list, how to handle it? Don't worry, you can convert the video from JVC Everio HDD camcorder to iMovie DV, H.264 or MPEG-4. So you can edit it into iMovie without any hassles.

4.JVC Video Editor for Mac
Mac JVC Video Editor allows you to edit the JVC TOD, MOD or AVCHD at ease with rich video editing features like: video trimming, cutting, splitting, joining/merging video. With it, you can also adjust video bright, contrast, saturation, set video resolution, encoder, frame rate, bitrate, crop video to remove unwanted video and merge several video files into one.



Note: The JVC Video Editor, specially designed for Windows users, has the similar editing functions as the Mac version does.
