FAQs

In general, changes to your project settings do not affect existing content items, even if those items are regenerated. (For example, if you update your project’s default voice, existing content items will continue using their original voices unless they are updated directly in the Editor or through the API.)The exceptions are:
  1. Filters: New content filters are applied when content is regenerated automatically through an integration
  2. Pronunciation rules: New pronunciation rules are applied to any generated or regenerated content within their scope
  3. Background music: If a content item uses the project’s default background music, changes to that default will be applied when the content is regenerated
  4. Style template: If a video uses the project’s style template and it has not been customized in the Editor, changes to the template will be applied when the content is regenerated
These changes do not trigger regeneration automatically. You must regenerate the content item for the updates to take effect.To apply other project-level changes to existing content, update the content item directly in the Editor or through the API before regenerating.
