Where 50 MB matters

A 52,428,800-byte file: exactly the size at which Git hosting on GitHub starts warning about large files, and about the limit for a zipped AWS Lambda package uploaded directly.

Testing notes for SRT

  • SRT uses a comma before the milliseconds and WebVTT uses a full stop. Mixing them up is the usual reason a converted file fails.
  • Files saved in a legacy encoding show garbled accents; importers should detect or require UTF-8.
