БЫСТРЫЙ ОТВЕТ

A MOI file is a small index file created alongside camcorder video clips (the .MOD or .TOD file of the same name) by JVC Everio and Panasonic SD/HDD camcorders. It holds the recording date, duration, bitrate, and audio codec - no video or audio. To watch the footage, open the matching .MOD file in VLC. The .MOI itself has nothing to play.

Что такое формат файла MOI?

A .moi file, also known as a Movie Index file, is created alongside the video file, which is saved with a .MOD extension. When an application opens the .mod file for playback or editing, the corresponding .moi is read automatically to supply clip metadata.

.moi is not a video or audio stream - it is a small binary sidecar produced by JVC Everio and Panasonic SD/HDD camcorders, typically just a few hundred bytes to a few KB. The file stores the recording date and time, clip duration in milliseconds, aspect ratio, TV system, and audio codec (AC-3 or MPEG). Multi-byte fields use big-endian byte order; the file begins with a version stamp such as V6 at offset 0.

The format was superseded by AVCHD, which embeds metadata within the stream itself. To watch the footage, open the .mod video - not the .moi index.

Безопасность и защита

РИСК: LOW

A .MOI is a tiny passive metadata record with no executable content - completely harmless. The only thing to know is practical, not security: it isn't video/audio, so don't waste effort trying to 'play' or 'convert' it. After copying footage off a camcorder you can usually delete the .MOI files safely; you only lose the camcorder software's view of the original recording date. Keep them only if you rely on Everio MediaBrowser / VideoCam Suite for dates.

A MOI begins with a 1-2 byte version field at offset 0 (commonly the ASCII version stamp such as 'V6'); it is a fixed-layout binary record, not a media stream. Identify by the .moi extension and the matching same-named .MOD/.TOD video beside it, not by a generic media signature.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

What is a .MOI file?
A small index/metadata sidecar written by JVC Everio and Panasonic camcorders to accompany a video clip (the .MOD or .TOD of the same name). It stores the recording date, duration, bitrate and codec - not the video or audio itself.
How do I open or play a .MOI file?
You don't - it has no video or audio to play. To watch the footage, open the matching .MOD file (in VLC, or rename it to .mpg). A hex editor can show the .MOI's raw metadata if you're curious.
Can I delete .MOI files?
Usually yes. Once you've copied the .MOD/.TOD videos, the .MOI sidecars are only used by the camcorder's bundled software to show recording dates. Deleting them doesn't harm the videos.
Is a .MOI an audio file?
No. Despite some databases labeling it 'audio', a .MOI carries no sound - it's a metadata index for a video clip. The audio is inside the sibling .MOD/.TOD video, not the .MOI.
What's the difference between .MOD and .MOI?
The .MOD (or .TOD) is the actual camcorder video (an MPEG-2 stream you can play/convert); the .MOI is just its tiny index file holding date, duration and codec info.
How do I convert a .MOI to a video?
You can't - there's no video in it. The footage is the same-named .MOD file; convert THAT to MP4 with HandBrake or ffmpeg (or rename it to .mpg). Ignore or delete the .MOI.
