Not making changes

I'm generating videos in Firefly using promps and I've done two edits. Even though I've asked for very specific changes in two different ways, the video is virtually identical each time. I feel like I'm wasting credits. It's totally unresponsive to my edit prompts.

Hi pauls76350163,

Thanks for the feedback. I can understand the frustration, especially when you're using credits and the edits aren't producing the changes you're asking for.

If Firefly is returning results that are virtually identical despite significantly different edit prompts, I'd recommend avoiding repeated attempts with the same generation. Instead, try:

  • Make the edit prompt very explicit about what you want changed and what should remain unchanged.
  • If you're getting essentially the same result, try a substantially different prompt rather than simply rewording the same instruction.
  • Try starting with a fresh generation or using a different model/reference, especially if the edits continue to produce nearly identical result
  • Use the thumbs up/down feedback on the results and include a reason. This helps provide feedback on cases where the generated result doesn't follow the prompt.
  • You can also delete files that aren't useful to keep your workspace organized:

Sometimes generative AI can produce results that don't fully reflect a specific instruction, so some iteration can be necessary. I hope this helps!

Thanks

Matt
