To render a video in Storyboard AI, click Generate Video in the editor. Storyboard AI creates the voiceover and captions, renders the video in the cloud, and puts a downloadable MP4 in the work item's Storyboard AI panel.
-
Click Generate Video in the top right.
-
We prepare your frames and narration. Audio is regenerated only for the frames you've changed ā everything else reuses what's already there.
-
The video is rendered in the cloud.
-
Progress is shown in the Storyboard AI panel on the work item. You can close the editor and come back; the render continues in the background.
-
When it's done, the panel shows a Download MP4 button.
Previous renders for a work item stay listed in that work item's panel.
If a render doesn't finish
If the panel still shows a render in progress long after you'd expect it to be done, reopen the work item's Storyboard AI panel ā completed and failed renders are settled when the panel loads. Renders that stall are retired automatically after about 15 minutes, and a "Last render failed" card appears in their place.
A render started by the Rovo agent is recorded the same way, so open the panel to confirm it landed.
If a render fails
The most common cause is a source video with very large pixel dimensions. The editor resizes clips above 1920Ć1080 automatically when you add them, so this mostly affects clips that got in another way ā attached by the Rovo agent, or uploaded from a browser too old to resize them. Resize the clip and add it again through the editor. Re-saving it as a different file type at the same dimensions won't help.
