When encountering the issue "Avidemux cannot use that file as audio track," there are several potential reasons and solutions to consider:
Step-by-Step Case Studies
Let’s walk through two real-world scenarios.
1. Convert the audio to a friendly format (most reliable)
Use Audacity, FFmpeg, or XMedia Recode to convert your audio file to:
- WAV (16-bit PCM, stereo, 48kHz) – universally compatible
- MP3 (CBR, 320kbps or 192kbps, stereo) – good for smaller size
FFmpeg one-liner (to convert input.m4a to Avidemux-friendly WAV):
ffmpeg -i input.m4a -acodec pcm_s16le -ar 48000 -ac 2 output.wav
2. Audio Format Incompatibility
Avidemux has native support for certain audio formats but not others. Unsupported formats include:
- Opus (in containers other than MKV/WebM)
- AC3 / E-AC3 (without proper plugins)
- DTS (often rejected)
- WAV (uncompressed PCM) – surprisingly tricky in certain containers.
- AAC with non-standard headers (e.g., ADTS vs. LATM).
A Note on Avidemux Versions
- Older versions (pre-2.7) – Very picky. Only basic WAV and MP3 CBR worked reliably.
- Avidemux 2.7.x and 2.8.x – Better AAC and MP4/M4A support, but the error still appears for Opus, Vorbis, and VBR MP3.
- Nightly builds – Improved but still not perfect. If you rely on external audio tracks often, consider using Shotcut, Olive, or Kdenlive instead.
