Recently i tried importing a 25 hour and a 27 hour long audio file into premiere pro but an error popped up saying "ERROR CONFORMING FILE ( .CFA or something that i don't remember) "
So, what do i do?
If there was a way to remove the limit then there wouldn't be one in the first place.

Premiere does have a 24 hour timeline limit, so that might apply to footage too. What are you trying to do with these super lengthy audio files? If you're only working with audio, have you tried importing them into Audition instead?

Its an audiobook.
how to remove that 24 hour time limit?
if i edit any of the footage, i loose quality, besides i can't edit footages longer than 24 hours in other software too like vlc ( convert)
i can't quite understand why software are not flexible with this time limit.
