Yes, I have a suggestion. Provide some details. The more details you can provide, the greater the chance someone can give you a satisfactory answer.

What exact command(s) have you tried? What output did you get? What's the version/source of your ffmpeg program?

What is the output of ffmpeg -i <file.mod>? At the very least it should be able to report what kind of codecs are involved.
