This just appears sometimes and then you just have to close and rerun the app and then it works.

I can confirm this error message. In my experience, I've encountered it exclusively when I've rapidly activated the application multiple times in quick succession, specifically when using the Groq API. I haven't been able to determine whether the issue lies with the application itself or with the API.

To provide more context: 1. The error seems to occur intermittently. 2. It appears to be triggered by rapid, repeated use of the application. 3. In my case, it's associated with the Groq API implementation. 4. The root cause (application vs. API) remains unclear.

For users experiencing this issue, closing and rerunning the application, as suggested, seems to resolve it temporarily.

The developer might want to investigate potential race conditions or API request handling, especially under rapid-fire usage scenarios.

I just had this happen. It seems to me like a corrupted recording, because when I look in the recording list, the failed one takes longer to load than the other ones, and it's a blank audio – less than a second – though I was recording for several seconds.

I couldn't find a way to view any logs or bring up DevTools in the app. I also couldn't download the recording, due to crashes (Issue #309), and I couldn't locate where the app's database or recordings are stored on disk.
