Was this problem ever resolved? I'm getting the same error: "There was an error loading the transcript". I opened the same videos in Chrome, Edge, and Firefox, as well as in incognito mode without success. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Candle, welcome to our Community! 

     

    Yes, this should have been resolved, but let's see what we can find together on that. 

     

    Does that happen with all of your files, or a specific one? If you could send me a screenshot of the error, that'd be amazing.

     

    Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!

      It's only one file that I'm aware of. It's an MP4 file, no different than others that are working.

        Hey Candle - sorry to jump in here, but could you clarify the size of the file and if you've tried another network since you first noticed this?
