I am looking for any application that will read those .moi files. The .moi files stores the date and time of the recorded movie in JVC camcorder. Thanks in advance for any help

I can see that the first 2 byted is 'V' (0x56) and in my case '6' (0x36) probably showing the version number of the file format. The next 4 bytes is probably a long int showing the size of the file in bytes.The next 2 bytes is the year (0x07d7=2007 in my case). 1 byte is month (0x07 = July in my case), and 1 byte is day of month (0x08 = day 8 in my case). Thats as far as I have decoded so far. My guess is that the next bytes is the time of day or something.

First of all .MOI files is "Movie Information" files. The actual movie/video is in the .MOV file. One easy way to is to copy the .MOV file to a .MPG file, but then you lose some information about the video which is located in the .MOI file.

There is an application that is called sdcopy.exe (written bY "Sektionschef" ) that reads the .MOV and .MOI file and copies those to a .MPG file. See here.

I made the mistake of selecting Windows Media Player as the program TO OPEN WITH for all MOI files. I meant to select the MOD files to open with Windows media player. So the question I have is how the heck do I deselect the Windows Media player and replace it with Unknown as I don't want to associate any programs to the MOI file. Any ideas?

One other issue, I can't use the restore / calendar feature as this was selected over a year ago by my wife, and I have not use the JVC HDD camcorder on her computer till today. Now have no idea how to reset the MOI file progam association to unknow?

Any ideas.

in windows explorer click on Tools, Folder Options. Select the File Types tab, scroll down to where moi is listed, select it and delete it. Next time you try to open the moi file it will ask you to select the program to open it with, select what you want to try but make sure the "always use the selected program to open this kind of file" box is unticked.

I have bought the JVC Everio Camcorder and was able to put the files on my computer. Like the others the files are in .MOD and .MOI format. Unlike the others, I have a Mac computer and would like to do my video editing on this computer that runs on OS which means I cannot use the software provided. What can I do to convert these files so that I may be able to run them in programs such as Quicktime, Flash, Primier, and After Effects, for viewing, web work, and editing?

The files on a friend's JVC are with extensions of MOD (the actual movies) and MOI. After copying the files onto the computer, change the MOD files to mpg, and it will play in Real Player or what ever program is associated with the mpg file extension.

I have finally found a program to convert my MOD video files to a usable format (wmv, avi, etc.). It is Allok Video to MP4 Converter. Don't be misled by the title. This program will convert to other formats as well. Hope this is helpful.

Like Henry I also have a mac and want to import the files into final cut for editing. I heard that you could import them into quicktime and then export them as another file but i cant even open them in quicktime.

Does anyone know a program compatible for mac that will convert an .moi file?

For Mac users: this is a really annoying issue - can't use iMovie either. A workaround is to download ffmpegX (just google it) + the three additional files the program asks for and then convert the files to whatever format you like.

It takes some time, but what can you do? Answer - don't buy JVC again!

I uploaded the movie files from the camcorder to my computer and when i open the movie files it doesn't have any sound. Does this have anything to do with MOI files? What do i do to make the sound come back, and what do i do with the MOI files?

- Please reply asap I'm doing a project for class thanks :)

For the moment i just take the mod files and i've no problem for the sound. It should be something else. My question was: is it possible to have day & hour on the avi file?

I just got them on the camcorder but not on the PC. It's perhaps with the MOI files ?

thx

I made a small BASIC program to read some information from the MOI file:

Hello Everyone,

I have a big problem, I accidentally remove the MOD files on my computer and now all I have is the MOI files. Is there anyway I can recover my MOD files back?? I hate to think that I lost our vacation trip video.

Please help!! anyone??

Victor Reijs

Hello Joanna,

If you just deleted them, can't you restore them from your 'Recycle Bin'? In Windows files which are deleted by the user are kept there for some time.

You can restore them if you see them in this 'Recycle Bin'.
The MOI has no video/audio in it (only meta data), so they are of no use in this sense.

I hope they are in the Recycle bin!

All the best,

Victor

Hello Janet,

I just connect my JVC to my computer, and look for the new disc that will pop up. Than in the folder Video all the video files are there and you can just drag them to a directory on you hard disk. Just see the JVC as a USB memory stick (there is no difference).

All the best,


Victor
