Captions Generation Error January 22, 2026 16:55 Updated When generating captions, the following error may occur if you have an imported video file - Unable to Transcribe Audio, Must be under 25 MB. What does that error mean? When a video file is imported into Vyond, if the audio component of the video is bigger then 25 MB, captions will not generate. This can also apply to video files created from the screen recording features. What is a workaround to avoid this error? Prior to importing a video file into Vyond, it can help to split the video into smaller parts and import each part separately. This can help minimize the audio size within that imported video to allow for successful caption generation. How do we know the size of the audio file within a video file? The audio size for a 1 minute video can vary. It can depend on how the file is compressed. Additional factors can include bitrate, sample rate, or the channel type (mono or stereo). Here are some examples of audio size for a 1 minutes video file:Low Quality/Compressed (MP3): Around 1-2 MB (1-minute rule of thumb).Standard (CD Quality): About 10-11 MB (16-bit/44.1kHz or 48kHz stereo WAV).High Quality (Pro Audio): 15 MB (24-bit/44.1kHz stereo) up to 33 MB (24-bit/96kHz stereo).Files specs can vary from the above examples.
