Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

I attempted to open a 4 GB file today and the GUI did not want to open it. It didn't seem to be doing much, just didn't open it.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
For the GUI:

  1. Open birdnet-gui
  2. Go to the single instance tab
  3. Drop a large file, mine was 4GB long after a night of recording on my AudioMoth
  4. GUI disappears
  5. Open task manager
  6. No large memory consumption, CPU usage, or disk usage

Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

It should open it successfully. Instead it seems to just do nothing
