What are Credits and how do they work?

Autodesk Flow Studio’s credit system enables you to spend your subscription balance according to your needs.
Autodesk Flow Studio has multiple project types that require different amounts of resources for processing. Each second of project processing has an equivalent cost in credits.

Credit spending is as follows:

  • Live Action (Easy or Advanced):
    1 second = 20 credits
  • AI MoCap only:
    1 second = 4 credits
  • Animation / Video to 3D Scene:
    1 second = 20 credits
  • Wonder Tools Clean Plate & Camera Track:
    1 second = 4 credits

How many Credits do I get per month?

The amount of credits you get each month depends on your subscription tier.

  • Lite users get 3,000 credits per month, which is equal to:
    • 150 seconds of Live Action
    • 750 seconds of AI MoCap
    • 150 seconds of Animation / Video to 3D Scene
    • 750 seconds of Wonder Tools Clean Plate & Camera Track
  • Pro users get 12,000 credits per month, which is equal to:
    • 600 seconds of Live Action
    • 3,000 seconds of AI MoCap
    • 600 seconds of Animation / Video to 3D Scene
    • 3000 seconds of Wonder Tools Clean Plate & Camera Track

Do my monthly credits carry over to the next month if I don't use them?

Credits reset every month. They do not carry over from month to month.

What happens when I run out of credits?

Currently, when you run out of credits, you cannot process any more videos in Autodesk Flow Studio until next month when you receive your next batch of credits.

Project Processing Issues

What browsers are supported by Autodesk Flow Studio for optimal performance?

Autodesk Flow Studio is currently optimized for Chrome and Safari. If you are having issues with the platform please first try using one of these browsers and see if the issue persists.

What does the "File Not Found" error mean?

This error usually happens when the input video is not uploaded successfully from your local machine to the cloud. Please make sure that you have a stable connection while the video upload is in progress and don’t close the window until the project has begun processing.
You can also upload your videos directly to the My Assets page to ensure that it is fully uploaded before processing. Visit the Video Upload page for more information.

What does the error code "eyJuYW1l..." mean?

This error is related to a network connection issue and can often be caused by a VPN blocking access to the platform. Please troubleshoot your network connection to see if you are able to gain access.

Why am I receiving video codec limitations errors?

Certain video formats with specific codecs are not supported in Safari and some of them fail in Google Chrome as well. If your video is not supported, try converting it to the .mp4 format with the H.264 encoding.

What should I do if my project fails without a specific error message?

If you did not receive a specific message for why your project failed, please submit a support ticket and we will look into your issue: Support Ticket
💡 Any lost minutes will be refunded.

Why does my clean plate appear blurry?

In some cases, the Clean Plate can look blurry resulting in a blurry outline around the character. This is usually caused by the system not having enough information about what is behind the actor. This issue can appear in static or tracking shots, where the framing of the shot causes the actor to completely obscure the background. In these cases, leaving a small portion of the video at the beginning and the end, where the background is fully visible, can help resolve the issue. Alternatively, on some tiers, the generated clean plate can be downloaded and further improved. Another option would be to film the clean plate separately and use it with the character pass in the compositing.

Interface

Can I edit clips and combine shots in the timeline?

Editing clips and combining multiple shots is currently not supported in the timeline. It is recommended to edit videos before uploading them into Autodesk Flow Studio. Editing tools are currently in development.

Autodesk Flow Studio Project Types

Why does AI MoCap project type use fewer credits than Live Action project type?

The difference in credit cost between the two project types is due to the amount of cloud processing time used to get the desired end result.
Live Action generates motion capture data along with additional VFX elements which take more resources to process.
Since AI MoCap generates only the motion capture data and does not render your VFX shot, it uses fewer cloud processing resources and therefore costs fewer credits.

What outputs do I get with a Live Action Project?

Live Action (Easy or Advanced) projects output several different VFX elements and file types:

  • AI MoCap (FBX)
  • Clean Plate (PNG, JPG)
  • Alpha Masks (PNG)
  • Camera Track (FBX)
  • Blender Scene (BLEND)
  • Maya Scene (MA)
  • USD Scene (USD)
  • Unreal Engine Scene (UPROJECT)
  • Rendered VFX Shot (PNG, MP4)

What outputs do I get with an AI MoCap Project?

Live Action (Easy or Advanced) projects output several different VFX elements and file types:

AI MoCap projects output only motion capture data:

  • AI MoCap (FBX, USD)

What outputs do I get with an Animation / Video to 3D Scene Project?

Animation / Video to 3D Scene projects output several different VFX elements and file types:

  • AI MoCap (FBX)
  • Camera Track (FBX)
  • Blender Scene (BLEND)
  • Maya Scene (MA)
  • USD Scene (USD)
  • Unreal Engine Scene (UPROJECT)
  • Optional: Rendered VFX Shot (PNG, MP4)
