Hey, I’m using the Whisper API to transcribe some audio, but when the file is too big I want to use Pydub to split it up into 10 minute intervals. How possible is this? I’m not sure, so that’s why I need bigger brains than mine to come into the equation. I know the Code function now supports Pytho…

Hi @itsalanlee , n8n’s Python implementation only supports packages compatible with Pyodide as documented here I am afraid. pydub is unfortunately not on the list . You could, however, use Python (or FFmpeg’s binaries) through the Execute Command node. Seeing you’re using docker you’d need to build a…

[Bild] MutedJam: services: n8n: build: . restart: unless-stopped ports: - 5678:5678 volumes: - ./data:/home/node/.n8n Hey @MutedJam , Thank you so much for taking the time to write all of this out and helping me, I trully appreciate you! I created the Dockerfil…

Tom thank you so much man, I just fixed it. All I did was keep my existing docker-compose.yml file and just switch “image:n8nio/n8n:ai-beta” to “build: .” and now ffmpeg is active in there. Again, thank you so much for all your help, you are a true legend my friend!

Amazing, glad to hear this works for you!

Hey, sorry to revive the thread. I was looking to do exactly the same. But, I am getting stuck as I am not sure how to execute the commands through the node. For context, I have built the Docker image using the “latest” image from n8n and added the lines you gave. When I execute ffmpeg --help, I …

Hi @Jayavel , this is not an n8n issue but an error thrown by ffmpeg. Make sure you allow your n8n user to write to your /files folder. If you’re using n8n to run docker also keep in mind that your docker container will not typically have access to the full host filesystem and you’d need to specific…

Jumping on the bandwagon here; I expect more people will come to this exact thread to do the exact same seeing as how powerful the whisper API is and associated use cases. What is the best way forward for us using the cloud version of N8N? I am right now setting up my own custom service on render.…

Hi @revhuntr , I doubt n8n cloud will get support for executing arbitrary binaries like ffmpeg through the Execute Command node anytime soon, mostly for security reasons. You could find a suitable REST API handling necessary conversions, but for the time being self-hosting n8n is the only way to all…

I set up a web sevice that does the deed - in case anyone lands here and needs it too just ping me

Thanks man. Since I had recreated the entire setup with the custom image, I forgot to run the permissions command for the /files folder. Now it is working.

Is there a way to import the pydub package into N8N?

Or if you have a solution using FFmpeg that would be ideal!
