How i can fix these errors please

[norbvk]

Hello, I have a problem so I hope some programmers can help me solve it.

Basically I run this :

import whisper model = whisper.load_model("base") result = model.transcribe('test.mp3', fp16=False)

And I get this:

---

Output exceeds the size limit. Open the full output data in a text editor.

Error Traceback (most recent call last)
File
38 try:
39 # This launches a subprocess to decode audio while down-mixing and resampling as necessary.
40 # Requires the ffmpeg CLI and ffmpeg-python package to be installed.
41 out, _ = (
---> 42 ffmpeg.input(file, threads=0)
43 .output("-", format="s16le", acodec="pcm_s16le", ac=1, ar=sr)
44 .run(cmd=["ffmpeg", "-nostdin"], capture_stdout=True, capture_stderr=True)
45 )
46 except ffmpeg.Error as e:
File
324 if retcode:
--> 325 raise Error('ffmpeg', out, err)
326 return out, err

Error: ffmpeg error (see stderr output for detail)

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

RuntimeError Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In[25], line 4
1 import whisper
...
libswscale 6. 7.100 / 6. 7.100
libswresample 4. 7.100 / 4. 7.100
libpostproc 56. 6.100 / 56. 6.100
test.mp3: No such file or directory

---

My goal is just to transcribe an mp3 audio file "test.mp3" into text, via the AI Whisper of OpenAI.

And honestly, I've been at it for two days now and I'm not getting anywhere, I've opened the files in question, located lines 42 and 325 but I don't know what to do next.

Thank you in advance for your help and your explanations.

It appears that test.mp3 is not in the same directory that you are running the whisper command. You can check if it is in the same directory by running dir test.mp3 (Windows) or ls test.mp3 (MacOS or Linux).

You must install the package that it showed there ffmpeg. Here the setup doc of whisper: https://github.com/openai/whisper#setup that shows you how to install it depending on your OS.

Thanks glanford for your quick reply

Despite giving extension (.mp3) to the audio file, no success.
cmd returns the following response:

[in#0 @ 000001eecc9ea280] Error opening input: No such file or directory
Error opening input file VoiceNote.mp3.
Error opening input files: No such file or directory

Audio file does exist in C:\Users\xxxx\Documents
