#1890 Video required

The error "Video required" typically occurs when the software cannot find or properly read the input video file. Please follow these steps to resolve the issue:

1. Check the File Path: Ensure your video file path does not contain any Chinese characters, spaces, or special symbols. This is a common cause of failure. Move the video to a simple path like D:/test.mp4.
2. File Name: Rename the video file to a short, simple English name (e.g., video.mp4).
3. File Format: Verify the video file is not corrupted and is in a standard format (e.g., MP4, MKV, MOV).
4. Re-select the File: In the main interface, clear the input field and drag-and-drop the video file again.
5. Check FFmpeg: The software requires ffmpeg. The pre-packaged Windows version includes it, but if you moved files, ensure ffmpeg.exe is in the same directory as sp.exe.

If the problem persists after these steps, please provide the complete error log from the logs folder inside your pyVideoTrans directory.

   Here are the descriptions of all possible files that might exist. Depending on the configuration options when executing, some files may not be generated.

    *.mp4 = The final completed target video file
    en.m4a = The audio file in the original video
    ru.m4a = dubbing audio
    removed_noise.wav = original video after removed noise
    en.srt = Subtitles recognized in the original video
    ru.srt = Subtitles translated into the target language
    shuang.srt = Source language and target language subtitles srt 
    vocal.wav = The vocal audio file separated from the original video
    instrument.wav = The background music audio file separated from the original video

The error "Video required" indicates the software cannot locate or process the input video file. This is often due to file path issues, especially on Windows.

1. Shorten the File Path: The path C:/Users/iMac/Downloads/win-pyvideotrans-3.89 is long and contains a hyphen. Move the entire pyVideoTrans folder to a simpler location on a non-system drive, such as D:\pyVideoTrans. Do not run sp.exe from within the compressed archive.
2. Check the Input Video: Ensure the video file you are trying to process is in the same simple directory and has a short filename without special characters (e.g., video.mp4).
3. Re-select the File: After moving the software and video, restart sp.exe and use the "Select audio or video" button to choose your file again.

If the issue persists, please provide the error log from the logs folder in your pyVideoTrans directory.
