I was generating video just fine and then started getting this error of. Something went wrong.  I changed prompts, changed models, tried different reference frames, and continue to get the error.  Am unable to move on with the video.

    We created a new account, started with that new account in incognito mode.  Got same outcome - no error ever appeared, but video wouldn’t generate. 

     

    Same error, different model

    Hi ​@N8. 
    King 3.0, 1080, 5 sec, No references to any elements

    Mac Sequoia 15.79 Chrome

    Version 152.0.7977.83 (Official Build) (arm64)

    Initially, I had this: 
    The dark-haired man in the black open-collar suit is naturally engaged with the nearby guests. He listens as another guest speaks, then gives a brief relaxed smile and small conversational response. He holds his champagne flute casually without drinking. His attention stays on the group around him. Nearby guests continue subtle natural conversation and gestures. Gentle observational camera drift, realistic restrained movement, shallow cinematic depth of field. End with him still engaged with the group.

    I get this same error with this simple prompt: 
    The dark-haired man in the black open-collar suit is naturally engaged with the nearby guests.

    I am also using a community gpt that is called Firefly Prompter.  

    I am on a macbook, using Chrome.  Software doesn’t work with Safari - that’s my only browser I have approved. 


    I got the same error in incognito mode as well as with all of the models, not just King 3.0.

    My friend generated 10 videos of similar style without issue up until Iwehit this. I logged in to start helping to generate and can’t.  We’ve been assessing the solution to determine if it is going to meet our needs for creating the songwriter’s MVs.

    Thanks for removing.  I forgot to shade out the above - I wanted to show I had the credits.

    Hey ​@Enlightened_Galaxye81f 


    Help us. Help you. 
    Sorry to hear you're running into that "Something went wrong" error. Could you provide more information; so, the team can proceed to troubleshoot? Without the requested information it is difficult to assist you and resolve the issue. 

    I noticed in your prompt the use of a negative prompt. I find using positive reenforcing prompts work better. Ask for what you want:

    A Full Screenshot or short video:  Please provide a screenshot of your entire browser or application window, including your avatar in the upper right corner. Many errors have multiple causes; seeing the full context is much more helpful than a zoomed-in image of the error message alone.
