Will the Basic monthly payment plan allow me to download the video and remove the watermark?

How do I download the video?

Could you explain what "Video Credits" are and how they are determined?
Video credits apply to the duration of video generated with a virtual presenter. For example: If you generate a 20-slide presentation video with a virtual presenter, if the final video duration is 5 minutes, you will be debited 5 minutes from your monthly video credit and 20 slides from your monthly slide credit. If you don't have enough video credit for that month, the system will switch to voice-over only and you will be only debited 20 slides from your monthly slide credit. The next period, your credit levels reset.
Can we resize the visual presenter image and place it in the corner to avoid overlapping our PowerPoint content?
By entering some command text in the Notes section of the PowerPoint ,you can define where the virtual presenter will be located. For example, if you enter %%AVATAR_BOTTOMLEFT% in the Notes section of a slide, the avatar will be located at the bottom left of the video. Please refer to the tutorial for the list of commands: https://www.automate.video/blog/how-to-insert-an-ai-virtual-presenter-in-your-powerpoint-video
