Realtime generation status
Understand generation states, interpret errors, and recover from failed tasks.
Generation states
After submitting a prompt, Lovision runs the generation task and shows its status near the prompt input or on the generated layer.
| State | What it means |
|---|---|
| Generating | The AI model is actively producing the result. Progress may be shown as a percentage or a spinner. |
| Completed | The result is ready. The generated output is placed in your project automatically. |
| Failed | The task did not complete. An error message usually explains why. |
| Canceled | You or the system stopped the task before it finished. |
Why tasks fail
Common reasons for a failed generation:
- Invalid prompt — the prompt contained content that the model declined to process. Revise the prompt and try again.
- Reference too large — an attached file or reference image exceeded the model's input size limit. Resize or compress the reference.
- Timeout — the model took too long to respond. This can happen with large outputs or complex requests. Adjust the prompt or model and submit a new generation.
- Insufficient credits — the generation consumed the last of your available credits mid-task. Add credits and resubmit.
- Model unavailable — the selected model is temporarily offline. Switch to an alternative model in the model selector.
Handling a failed task
- Read the visible error message on the generation status.
- Adjust the prompt, reference files, or model.
- Submit a new generation from the prompt input.
Canceling a running task
Click the × or Cancel button next to the in-progress task to stop it. Canceled tasks do not consume credits (or refund them, depending on the model — see Credits and concurrency limits).
Tips
- If a task consistently fails with the same prompt and model, try a different model to rule out a model-specific issue.
- Long video or multi-frame generation tasks take more time than image tasks — the Generating state for video may last several minutes.
- Keep the browser tab active during generation; some operations rely on an active connection to receive the result.
