Download Capacity

Hi There!

i have just started using N8N, and im creating my first workflow, im trying to download a video from drive, but it takes to much time and it does not make anything. The video is 5 minutes , can someone tell me which is the maximum capacity that n8n can process.
I was also trying to implement the video by the forms of n8n but it also gives me problems about the capacity,

Im on my free trial using the online version, is this a matter of subscription?

What im trying to do with my workflow is from a text extract the audio and then become text like using YT transcripts thats what im trying but its giving me a lot of problems

Thanks for the help

What model you’re going to use? Maybe it can pull video directly from the source. Or find one that is able to do so.

Beside downloading the video you will need then to upload it at some point. So it makes sense to invest some time into research and find the right model or service with an API that matches your needs.

Im using n8n locally, at first i was doing it online but i changed it , i dont know if you reffer to model to this.

The problem im having is this one:

Also i tried instead of an http module , i tried with a drive module but still does not work.

The video im trying to upload its 654MB and about 6 minutes , i dont know which is the maximum capacity to this.

For the trigger i was using a drive module, where i have my api from my google account i dont know if this matter

Thanks for your help here

You will most likely use a transcription service. Find one that is able to download video by url directly, without you downloading and then uploading that large files.

Maybe you could get a video of a smaller size (you need it for audio only after all). Many video services including YouTube offer an option to download a video in a smaller resolution, hence smaller size.

Some of video services offer audio-only downloads.

There is too much context that is only available to you to suggest a working solution.

The search term (or prompt if talk LLM chats) template would be: “How do I get audio (smaller resolution video) from NameIt service for a specific video”.

You need to get creative, flexible and look outside the box.

Hope the above helps.
