Possible causes

possible-causes page anchor
  • The audio file is longer than eight hours.
  • Split the source media into segments shorter than eight hours (for example, 7:59:59 or less) and transcribe each segment separately.
  • Verify the duration of your media file before you start a transcription job to avoid this error.
