Re: Video transcript error message

Video transcript error message

One Yoga
Explorer | Level 4

I keep getting the error message "There was an error loading the transcript" for all my videos when trying to generate a transcript. The length doesn't matter, it happens with 1-minute videos and 30- or 60- minute videos. The format is mp4. All videos are played correctly in the preview. The audio is clear and in English. Any suggestions?

I have no issues opening the videos. Just most of them won’t transcribe.

I see, thanks for checking, @aboissonneault.

 

If you open the file via browser while logged in to your account, does the transcription work?

That's what I'm doing and it's not working.
