MOD at a glance
MOD
MOD appeared with JVC's first Everio hard-disk camcorders around 2003, recording standard-definition MPEG-2 video in program stream containers as a pragmatic bridge between the DV tape era and later AVCHD adoption.
ICB at a glance
ICB
The Truevision line grew out of EPICenter-era PC graphics boards, and several board names ended up surviving as filename extensions even when the underlying raster structure stayed close to the wider TGA family.

FAQs
Why convert MOD to ICB?
Choose ICB as target when recovering historical raster assets from Truevision-era systems or normalizing old image archives before moving them into PNG, TIFF, or another contemporary format.
What changes when converting MOD to ICB?
Convert to ICB when recovering historical raster assets from Truevision-era systems or normalizing old image archives before moving them into PNG, TIFF, or another contemporary format. It is mainly a compatibility target for legacy graphics collections.
What should I review after converting MOD to ICB?
After conversion, review these destination checks: Open converted output in ImageMagick and verify behavior on real samples; Compare output against the expected depends quality profile; Weak modern software recognition compared with ordinary.tga files.
How can I keep quality stable in MOD to ICB conversion?
Run representative samples, keep settings deterministic, and monitor these risks: Public documentation is mostly historical or secondary; Weak modern software recognition compared with ordinary.tga files; Validate destination compatibility before large-batch conversion.
