Export & download

Rendering the final file, downloading it, keeping the preview current, regenerating with AI, and what to do when an export fails or keeps processing.

There are two ways to the finished file. Download video on the video page gives you the render that already exists. Export in the editor renders your edited version first, then gives you that. No export settings screen stands in between, and the exported file always includes your saved edits, even when the preview hasn't caught up yet.

Start with how to export and download. After editing, read what to check before you export and how the preview relates to the export. Regenerate with AI is for when you want a different edit of the same footage. A render that takes a while, an export that fails and a download you can't find each have their own article below.
