RE: Wav file too big - error when trying to save

You don't even want to know how long it is - 10MB of audio - read from text covering two-thirds of a 14 inch ballot in 8 point font.  It's a perfect replacement for sleeping pills!

 

With the current encoding quality, what is the maximum audio file length or size we will accept?  Can it somehow be parsed into several files?

Fun.  If this is the constitutional amendment I think it is, get the file to Mike and we'll take a look.  No time like the present, eh?  We might be able to crush it down by encoding at a lower quality.  You might be best off though just skipping the "middle part" of the amendment in the audio file to make it shorter.  No one is going to sit through a full page of audio in the demo.  In fact, I find it hard to believe that a voter would sit through a full page of audio in an election.  Does KS even have a legislated ADA voting requirements, or is this part of the demo a Frankism?

I am trying to import a big Constitutional Amendment wav file into a database and get the message after doing the Import and selecting OK - Audio File is too big.  Then when I select OK for the Race, I get the following Gems Exception.  Any suggestions???
