I doubt it will matter if you're breaking up mid sentence if you pass in the previous as a prompt and split words. This is how Whisper does it internally.
It's not absolutely perfect, but splitting on the word boundary is one line of code with the same package in their docs: https://github.com/jiaaro/pydub/blob/master/API.markdown#sil...
25MB is also a lot. That's 30 minutes to an hour on MP3 at reasonable compression. A 2 hour movie would have three splits.
The page includes a five line Python example of how to split audio without breaking mid-word.

If that helps, just wrote a script to split the audio and use the prompt parameter to provide context with the n-1 segment transcription:

That's really easy to put in a document, much harder to do in practice. Granted, it might not matter much in the real world, not sure yet.
Still, this will require more hand holding than I'd like.
