I am using Google Speech-to-Text API for transcribing an audio that is 25 mins long. I have used the transcribe_async.py code for such task, as it is meant for long audio files.
I am using Ubuntu 16.04, and Python 3.5.2. The code certainly works on 1 min long audio files.
The error message is shown below. I can't identify the source of the problem.

This issue seems to be generated since the transcribe process requires more than 90 seconds to be performed. I recommend you to try to increase the timeout property to a larger number, depending on the audio file's long, in order to give enough time to the service to execute the transcription.
Code to be modified (line 81 in transcribe_async.py)
response = operation.result(timeout=90)
