How to update a saved template so it still rebuilds the video you approved
After you approve a revision, ask Vizard Agent to update the template in My templates. It moves each new change into the template's settings and scripts, then rebuilds your video from scratch with the template alone and compares that run with the approved cut, so the next video made from it comes out the same way.
What do you type into Vizard Agent?
Ask for the update after the version you want to keep, not before. A template saved early does not know about the intro you changed later, and the only reliable way to teach it is to update it once the result is approved.
Update it in My templates.
That short line is enough when the conversation already holds the approved version. If you have made several rounds of changes, say which version the template should reproduce.
What does Vizard Agent actually do?
It treats the template as a program that has to reproduce a known output. Saving the files is easy; proving they still make the approved video is the part that matters, so it runs the template on the same footage and measures the difference. In the session behind this article it:
- Read the saved template's instructions, example settings and build scripts.
- Moved the new intro, the voice clean-up and the filter for a passing car horn into the template.
- Ran the template from scratch and found its timeline 4.5 seconds shorter than the approved cut: the intro was being added in the wrong branch of a script.
- Fixed it and re-ran until the timelines matched.
- On a second update, traced a half-second gap to a fault in the delivered video itself, where the intro text cut off instead of dissolving, and rebuilt both formats through the template.
When does this not work well?
When the approved version contains a one-off fix the template should not repeat, such as a cut around a specific stumble in this recording. Tell Vizard Agent which changes are general and which belong only to this video, or the template will apply them to every future one.
Common questions
Do I have to save the template again after changes? Yes. Ask Vizard Agent to update it once the change is approved.
How do I know the template still works? Vizard Agent re-runs it and compares with the approved cut.
Can the update fix the original video too? Yes. Vizard Agent rebuilt both formats when the check found a fault.
