Troubleshooting & Glossary

Common errors and how to fix them:

  • "No Scenes Detected": The video might be too short or static. Try a video with at least 3 distinct camera cuts.
  • "Low Resolution Warning": The AI needs at least 720p to detect grain and texture. Use higher quality source URLs.
  • "Prompt Too Long": Midjourney has a token limit. Use TubePrompter's "Concise Mode" toggle if available.

Technical Terms Decoded:

DoF (Depth of Field)
How blurry the background is. Shallow = very blurry.
Chroma
Color intensity/saturation. High chroma = vivid.
Key Light
The main light source on the subject.
Volumetrics
Visible light beams (god rays) in fog or dust.
