What novel and script to video tools accept as source text

Does the tool work out who says each line?

Two pages say so directly. HeyGen splits a screenplay into scenes, assigns the cast and matches every spoken line. SceneMixer keeps the other names a script uses for each character, so a line spoken under a nickname is still tied to that character's sheet and voice. MagicLight and Pippit set up the roles first. From 4 source pages, read 2026-09-25 to 2026-10-13; no maker pays to be listed.

1In the vendors' words

Paste the screenplay and HeyGen breaks it into scenes, assigns your cast, and matches every spoken line.

HeyGen, AI Movie Maker page

Every character, scene and prop card can carry a short list of the other names your script uses for the same thing

2What to take from it

Who says a line decides whose face and whose voice a shot uses, so a misattributed line puts the wrong character on screen. Novels make this hard: a man called Daniel in the narration may be Danny in dialogue and Mr Cole to a stranger. SceneMixer's guide adds a safeguard worth knowing: a nickname counts as a match only when exactly one character answers to it.
