Render a video
Export MP4 in H.264 or HEVC at 1×, 2× or 4×, 24 to 60 fps, with music.
Render is where every export starts: video settings up front with a live estimate, and every other format one click below. Press ⌘E (Session → Render…) or click Render in the toolbar.
Video settings
| Setting | Options | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Resolution | 1×, 2×, 4× the canvas | The pixel size shows next to it, for example “2160 × 3840 px” |
| Frame rate | 24, 30, 60 fps | The default comes from Settings → Export (60 fps unless you change it) |
| Loop | 1×, 2×, 3×, 5× (the last one is your default when it's above 3×) | Shown for looping animations: how many times it repeats in the file (default 2×) |
| Codec | H.264 (“plays everywhere”), HEVC (“smaller file”) | |
| Include music | On / off | Shown when the scene has audio. Mixes the music and sound lanes and video clip sound into the MP4 |
Under the settings, an estimate like “MP4 · 6.0 s · about 12 MB” updates as you change them.
- Open Render with ⌘E.
- Choose resolution, frame rate, loops and codec.
- Click Render Video (or press ↩) and choose where to save. A progress bar shows “Rendering… 40 %”; Cancel stops it.
- The sheet closes when the file is ready.
Set the defaults for frame rate (24 fps, 30 fps, 60 fps) and Loops per video (1–8×) in Settings → Export → Video export (MP4).

Troubleshooting
| If this happens | Try this |
|---|---|
| Loop isn't shown | The animation doesn't loop. Ask the AI to make it loop seamlessly, or render it once. |
| The file plays silently | Turn on Include music, and check that clips aren't muted. |
| An export sheet about the license appears | The trial ended in a build that enforces licenses. See The free trial. |
