Yes. In this message, the "file" argument is the path of the video conversion tool, not the path of your file.

This issue seems related to this conversation on the Sozi community forum. For short, Sozi-export is based on obsolete software that no longer works in recent environments and we need to find an alternative. I have already opened issue #17 about this.

At the moment, I have no immediate solution except using Sozi-export in a Docker container.
