This error means the "Translate Video" task requires please first select an audio or video file — no input file has been chosen before clicking Start.
Steps:
Click the "Select audio or video" button in the top-left area and pick your file (mp4/mkv/avi/mov/wav/mp3, etc.).
Confirm the file path appears in the input box above the button.
If you intended to batch-process a whole folder, tick the Folder checkbox, then select the folder.
Verify the path contains only simple English letters/numbers — avoid Chinese, spaces, or special symbols (e.g. use E:/video/001.mp4).
After the file appears, click Start again.
If you are sure a file was selected but the error still appears, please provide the latest log from the software logs/ folder (copy the last ~30 lines) so the exact cause can be checked.
