Quick Fix

Why is my video taking a long time to generate?

If your video seems stuck, check your Duration settings. If you’ve written a very long script but selected a short duration, the AI might struggle to fit it all in.

Try shortening your script or choosing a longer duration to give the AI enough room to work.
