The video lifecycle
Each video in a series passes through the following stages: 1. Script generation When a new video is due, TubeDroid requests a script based on your series topic and settings. During this stage the video status shows Rendering…. 2. Rendering Once the script is ready, TubeDroid assembles the scenes, applies your chosen voice and visual style, and renders the final video file. The status continues to show Rendering… throughout this process. 3. Ready When rendering is complete, the video status changes to Ready. This is your opportunity to review the video, make edits, or let it publish automatically on schedule. 4. Published After the video is uploaded to your connected YouTube or TikTok channel, the status changes to Published. Published videos cannot be edited.Video statuses at a glance
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| Rendering… | TubeDroid is generating the script or rendering the video — no action needed |
| Ready | The video is rendered and waiting for review or scheduled publishing |
| Published | The video has been posted to your social media channel |
| Failed | Something went wrong — the video needs your attention |
If a video shows Needs attention in the dashboard, it means an upload or render error occurred. See Fix video upload and render errors to resolve it.
The Next Video concept
Every active series always has exactly one upcoming video queued up — this is called the Next Video. You can see it at the top of your series page. From there you can:- Review the generated title, scenes, and script
- Edit any details before it publishes
- Recreate it entirely if it doesn’t match your vision
