Think I just discovered what happens to AI generated images and sounds when your trial ends. Unless you save the final version to the Media Library, it looks like the assets disappear.
I've just lost access to a couple of sound effects that I forgot to add to the Media Library, but everything else that I saved to the library, is still in my timeline.
Has that been everyone else's experience, too?
Hi Jonathan. Can you confirm what you’re seeing? The AI-generated assets were inserted into your project at the slide level but are no longer in your slides after trial expiration?

Hey David. This happened midway through the build on a 'side project' - I embedded an AI generated sound effect in the slide master and shortly later it stopped working. I cracked open the master slide and found the sound effect had inexplicably disappeared. The triggers were still there, with 'unassigned' blanks. It was then I saw my trial had expired. On this ocassion, the missing sound effect was the only one I didn't add to the media library.
Just cracked open the .story file this challenge, and everything appears to be intact, thankfully. I can no longer generate assets, but everything I created during the trial is still there, on the timeline.
I'm wondering if this was a glitch due to using the master slide and the .story file being open at the same time as the trial ended?
I assume we don't need to save AI assets to the media library, they should just be saved on the timeline?- DavidAnderson9 days agoStaff
