I just bought a JVC High Definition camcorder and am confused as to the video files recorded with a TOD extension. I need to make DVD to play on our home dvd player and share with family but I cannot even play these TOD files on my computer. Can anyone recommend a good solution to convert these TOD files into something that can be burnt on any DVD disc without losing quality?

Generally speaking, TOD files are captured by a JVC Everio video camera, such as GZ-HD3 and GZ-HD7 and saved in a proprietary format that can be viewed using the Cyberlink software included with JVC video cameras. How to play TOD file on PC? Some JVC Everio cameras also save video files with a .MOD extension, which is similar to TOD format.
The open methods are similar too: you can install a free KMPlayer which can playback TOD and MOD files smoothly, or just simply rename TOD files to .MPG which could be playback in PowerDVD and other applications in most cases.

Step 1: Download Aimersoft Video to DVD Converter and install itNote: here I select Aimersoft Video to DVD Converter as the software to burn DVD because it supports converting and burning MOD files to DVD, which many other softwares can’t.

After that, the TOD files will appear in the main interface. Click the triangle button underneath the window on the right to play selected TOD video file and prepare for the next step.
Step 3: Organize imported TOD files The imported TOD files could be organized by clicking these four tabs: “Remove”, “Clear”, “Move Up” and “Move Down”. Remove: If a video file added is unwanted, select it and click “Remove” to remove it from the interface. Clear: Click “Clear” to remove all the video files from the interface. Be careful with this button. Move Up or Move Down: You may organize the order of added video files by clicking these two buttons.
Step 4: Trim the length of TOD video files By this operation you can trim the video length and remove unwanted parts. Just select the TOD file which you want to trim, click the scissors tab, a window will pop up as shown in the following screenshot. Drag the left triangle tab to set start position and drag the right to set end position, then click “OK” to accomplish trimming the length.
Step 5: Start burning Click “Option” button, then a window will pop up, you may select TV Standard between NTSC and PAL by selecting the country where you live. You may also select the aspect ratio and menu style here. Don’t forget to click “OK” to finish the operation. After all the above done, click “Burn” button, then another window will pop up as followed. Burn TOD to ISO image file: Select “ISO File” and specify a folder to save output file, then click “OK” to generate ISO files onto your computer. Burn TOD to DVD disc: After the above window pops up, insert a blank DVD disc to the DVD driver and select “DVD Driver”. Since you want to burn TOD to DVD disc, a DVD-RAM driver which has burning function is indispensible here.
