Whisper AI Integration Issue: Repeating Words in Transcriptions and Translations

I am attempting to use the Whisper ai integration to translate/transcribe calls, but often times I’ve been running into an issue where it’ll repeat the same word like a hundred times. For instance, this call was transcribed as a few lines of the actual transcription, but then shortly after, it puts “Thank you. “ more than 300 times.

I’ve had a similar thing with an other call that was supposed to be translated from spanish, but just resulted in another similar issue.

Upon downloading the actual recording from the exact same link, I hear no issues that would cause that. I did some research about bug reports with whisper, and while there are reports, they’re not meant for the Zapier version. Here’s the forum post I was reading. There’s also a line of code provided that can fix it, but I’m not sure how to apply it here, if its even possible:


python -m pip install --upgrade --no-deps --force-reinstall git+https://github.com/openai/whisper.git@refs/pull/1903/head

 

Thanks for the help in advance.

Thanks so much for flagging this in the Community, @Ryan Tripi

I can see that you also reached out to our Support team and they’ve opened up a bug report for this issue. I can’t provide any estimates as to when that will be resolved by but we’ll definitely email you as soon as it is. You wouldn’t be able to apply that sort of change on your end as it’s likely a fix that needs to be applied by the folks maintaining the OpenAI app itself. We’ve got the information you shared here regarding that potential fix noted on the bug report, in case it’s helpful to our developers in getting this fixed! 🤞

Thanks again for flagging this, we’ll be sure post any updates or workarounds we come across in the thread here in the meantime. 

Hi, i’m having the exact same problem : while trying to transcibe audio message from a phone it sometimes returnes with a repeating message (which has nothing to do with the catual audio content).

Do you have any tips to avoid this ? 

Thanks
