File Size Error when using link

I keep hitting a file size error on a 46MB file, despite using a link:

Hey @mathewpregasen - This is a size limitation by OpenAI Whisper, the AI model being used in the node. The only option here would be to break the file into two smaller files or you can explore creating a custom node that does the transcription: https://blog.gumloop.com/gumloop-custom-nodes/

hmm okay. was originally under the impression the file limit was 200mb. do you have any recommendation how we could do speech to text for larger files?

[Wasay-Gumloop]

200mb is the general file size limit (ie. you cant upload files more than 200mb on Gumloop) however AI nodes can have specific file size limits (bounded by the AI model).

My recommendation would be to breakdown the file into smaller parts if possible or try creating a custom node: https://blog.gumloop.com/gumloop-custom-nodes/

Ah that makes sense. Is it possible / smart to make a request from a custom node to a third-party transcription service that will have to wait for the file to be read and transcribed before continuing forward.

That does seem like the most scalable strategy for us, anyways, because we need to do speaker indexing.

You can make a custom node yourself that would be the fastest way to unblock yourself here. If you get stuck let us know.
