After Mic records a piece of audio, after the first generation is completed, the second click to generate will fail, prompting that the file does not exist.

Hi. I just tried to reproduce this in the latest version of the WebUI and failed.
Currently automatically cached gradio files are cleaned up by this line :
https://github.com/jhj0517/Whisper-WebUI/blob/bc6b2e9bde036d5ed53f6697aaa9ef12d7348f5e/app.py#L24
It will remove the cached temp files if they exist for more than an hour, checking every minute. So if you tried to re-generate within an hour, it should re-generate without a problem.
If you're using an older version of the WebUI, I recommend updating it.
Hi! I ran into the same issue.
I think I might have figured out part of the "magic" behind it. I uploaded a file and, without reloading the page in browser, I kept testing different models and parameters — just experimenting to see what works best. At some point, I got the error.

This doesn’t solve the problem, but it might be related to what's causing it.
When you upload a file via the WebUI, it gets cached automatically, and the WebUI uses the cached version rather than accessing the original source directly.
/tmp/gradio/520c9fc797bf1d641565979d9f70954d7e4e0249f00cc100df7636b035d9b8c4/App Recording 20250408 1404.mp3: No such file or directory
The error message says that the file could not be found in the temporary directory. It seems the temp file was removed somehow.
The most likely reason is that gradio automatically deleted it, since it was uploaded more than an hour ago.
The maximum cache age for uploaded files is currently set to 1 hour, as defined in this line.
https://github.com/jhj0517/Whisper-WebUI/blob/d70bcc79f4b4356cd6ebd145e09ee64aef9dd763/app.py#L27
Would it be better to increase than 1 hour?
From my tests, transcribing audio takes about 5 minutes per 1–1.5 hours of audio on average. So roughly, transcribing 11 to 16.5 hours of audio could take around 1 hour.
Then, when it gets to the diarization stage, it seems like the process accesses the file again — and that’s when it can crash with an error.
Would it be better to increase than 1 hour?
I think increasing the cache time would reduce the chances of long-running processes failing when they try to access the file again — especially if it's no longer in the cache at that point.
