Handling large video files from s3

Hi all, just wondering if there's a solution to handling large video files - I'm integrating a meeting bot system (like Recall.ai) that sends a s3 blob url that I need to save into convex before the url expires. Seems like I run into Connection lost while action was in flight error when the video is above certain size - any suggestions?

Are you streaming the file? await .blob() loads the entire file into memory, which could hit a memory limit. more info: https://stack.convex.dev/streaming-http-using-fetch it would be nice to have better errors than Connection lost while action was in flight, do you get a better error than this in the Convex dashboard?
