Hi, I have an old premiere file - it was created about 5 or 6 years ago. I've just opened it up in the latest version of Premier and the audio layer is not playing. I get the following errors shown  in the screenshot below and the second screenshot shows what the audio layer looks like.

 

I was just wondering if anyone knows a solution to this?

 

Thanks in advance.

If the audio contains ac3 then its no longer supported.

You will have to install a ac3 codec.

Thanks for the reply. I've found the original audio so I can save it in a compatible format. Thanks again.
