I have a JVC camera that saves .MOD files (really MPeg-4). I recently installed HD 11, and I used it to successfully edit a couple of videos composed of these MOD files, but I have noticed that whenever I add a .MOD file into a project, the memory usage goes way up and the CPU pegs for a while.
Today I started a new project and whenever I try to load .MOD files larger than about 500 MB, Movie Studio hangs with no visible progress. CPU is pegged and memory usage is flat. If I try the same thing with .AVI files, they load instantly.
Is there a recommended way to get around this problem? Should I convert my .MOD files to some other format? I tried renaming them to .MPG and that didn't help.
