Overview

The Render Queue in ACT 3 AI manages all rendering tasks — from draft previews to final 4K exports. It allows you to schedule, monitor, and prioritize jobs, making rendering efficient for both solo creators and collaborative teams.

Key Functions

  • Job Scheduling: Queue multiple scenes, shots, or full videos for processing.
  • Progress Tracking: Monitor render status, estimated time, and credit usage.
  • Batch Processing: Render overnight or in parallel to save time.
  • Prioritization: Reorder or pause jobs depending on urgency.
  • Collaboration: Team members can submit renders, with visibility across the organization.

How to Use

  1. From the Editor workspace or Build Video page, select **Render → Add to Queue**.
  2. Choose render settings (resolution, quality, engine).
  3. Confirm estimated credit cost.
  4. Submit the job — it appears in the Render Queue dashboard.
  5. Track progress in real time, cancel or reprioritize if needed.

Render Settings

  • Resolution: Draft, 720p, 1080p, 4K
  • Engines:
  • Quality Levels: Draft (low-cost), Medium, High, Ultra (4K)
  • Output Formats: MP4, MOV/ProRes, WebM

Managing the Queue

  • Drag jobs to reprioritize.
  • Pause, resume, or cancel active tasks.
  • View per-job credit usage and resolution.
  • Completed jobs are saved for download in Export Distribution.

Credits & Billing

  • Each job consumes credits based on resolution, engine, and duration (see Billing Model).
  • Draft previews are low-cost; 4K exports consume more.
  • Admins in Organization accounts can view usage by user/project.

Troubleshooting

  • Job stuck in queue → Try canceling and re-queuing.
  • Credits insufficient → Top up via Subscription Plan.
  • Output missing audio/video → Recheck project assembly settings.
  • Slow rendering → Heavy loads may delay jobs; schedule overnight or lower resolution.

Best Practices

  • Use draft previews first to validate timing before high-res renders.
  • Batch similar jobs together to save time.
  • Keep the queue organized by project or client.
  • Schedule overnight to avoid bottlenecks during active work hours.
