Does it give you a frame number in the message?


This usually is a problem with the media, or maybe a bad render file.

I'd start by deleting all render files, and try again.

If the error still happens, and shows a specific frame number, change the Time Display to Frames (in Preferences->General) and locate the frame where the problem shows. You may have to edit around the problem.
