How to upload MOD files to YouTube on Mac OS

Common problems when upload MOD to YouTube:
1."I have a JVC video camera. The video I took is a .mod and .moi file. (There are 2 files for one video) How do I upload them to YouTube? How to convert them? Do I need to convert them?"
---From Yahoo Answer

Many digital camcorders like the JVC Everio, the Canon FS100 and the Panasonic D-Snap SD-card camcorders used MOD video file format as the recording format. Certainly we can upload the MOV file to YouTube as soon as we encode the original video to other YouTube compatible formats like MP4, FLV, etc.

2."I used a decoder that works and I can play mod videos in windows media player and I rename the extension from MOD to MPEG but I can't load up to YOU TUBE, Do I have to resize it? or What I have to do?"

Actually, the MOD files that the JVC camera produces are really just MPEG-2 files. What's odd is the YouTube site says it accepts MPEG videos but not the MPEG-2. If you want to upload your MOD files to YouTube, you could not just rename the extension from .mod to .avi or .mpg, for these footages may turn into distorted or no sound.
