What versions of Python, Django, AudioField, and Celery are you using?
From what I can quickly see, AudioField hasn’t been updated in 3 years and may not be compatible with current Django.

3

What can I use instead of AudioField?

4

Python==3.10.1
Django==3.2.9
django-celery==3.1.17
django-audiofield==0.10.0

You can:

  • Fork AudioField and bring it up-to-date yourself.
  • Use it as inspiration and ideas for your own implementation.
  • Try to contact the original author of the package to see if they have any interest in bringing it up to date.
  • Look for another package.

See the Notes at the top of First steps with Django — Celery 5.2.1 documentation. You no longer need django-celery. What version of Celery are you using?
