Converting AVI produced by Adobe Premiere.

Question

A friend of mine transferred a video from DVCAM camcorder Sony DVCAM-250 to a PC using Adobe Premiere and then he tried to convert resulting AVI file to AVCHD using multiAVCHD application, but he got the following error message:

[10:57:44] Processing one title...

What could be wrong here?

Answer 1

As you can see the codec used does not allow you to perform the conversion. In this case, try to uninstall all the codecs in your computer, then choose something like CCCP Codecs or K-Lite codecs. An alternative way to bypass the error is to reconfigure the output settings.
