Are you using the latest version of Cleaner XL (1.5) for pc or an older version, that may or may not be able to handle HD files? I have used that app for batch video encoding for many years now, and also use the latest version of Sorenson Squeeze nowadays. One thing to note: AVI is just a container- you have to make sure that whatever app you are using to do encoding (Cleaner XL or Sorenson Squeeze) knows what codec your large intermediate AVI files were exported with.

Are you encoding on the same pc you are doing the export from Premiere with or another pc that may not have the codec? For example,I edit hdv with the Cineform codec in Premiere Pro and export the movies as AVIs. Cleaner can import them only if one has the Cineform codec on the pc. But Sorenson Squeeze can't import Cineform encoded AVI files at all, they first have to be "re-wrapped" as .MOV files with Cineform's HD Link app to be imported into Squeeze, and then I can batch encode them in Squeeze as WMV, Flash or Quicktime.
