Fix a problem

Each problem below repeats the message the studio shows and says what to do. If nothing works, email us at the end of the page.

The clip won't open#

  • “The connection dropped while loading.” Check your network and try again.
  • “The studio was just updated.” Reload the page, then try again.
  • “Your browser can't play this video.” Try again, or import the file from your camera roll with Import a video file.
  • “The clip couldn't open.” Try again. If it keeps happening, import the video file.
  • “This clip is too long to open here.” Pick a shorter clip.
  • “No room left to keep the clip on this device.” Delete old projects, one by one or with Clear all, then try again.

If a project's video is no longer on the device, tap Import a video file and pick it again: your settings and captions come back with it.

The cam is not found right#

  • “Check the framing: the cam detection isn't sure.” The cam may be misplaced: fix it below.
  • “No webcam found: full-frame layout.” The clip switches to Full frame. If the clip has a cam, place it yourself.
  • “Couldn't find the cam this time: full frame.” Place the cam yourself.
  1. In Framing, tap Change.
  2. Tap Place the cam myself and draw a rectangle around the cam.
  3. Confirm with Use this cam.

I can't hear anything#

  • The preview starts without sound: tap the preview's sound button. On iPhone, that tap is what unlocks the sound.
  • In the Audio tool, check that Mute audio is not on and that the Volume is not at its lowest.
  • In My streamers, a clip's preview is muted: tap the player's speaker.

The captions won't generate#

  • “Transcription failed. Type the text yourself.” Try again with Transcribe the voice, or type the text yourself.
  • “The translation failed. Try again in a moment.” Try again a bit later.

The export fails or is slow#

  • “The export failed. Try again, or try Chrome or Edge.”
  • “Exporting needs Chrome, Edge or Safari 17+ on a computer.” Open the studio in one of those browsers.
  • Stay on the page with the screen on until it is done: the rendering happens on your device, and the studio asks you to keep the screen open. Cancel export stops it.
  • If the editor lags, lower the preview quality with the quality button: the export stays sharp.

My subscription doesn't show#

  • “We can't check your subscription right now.” Try again in a moment.
  • “Your last payment failed.” Update your payment method with Manage or cancel my subscription to keep your access.
