# Seedance 2.5 US Reference to Video API

> Seedance 2.5-referencevideogenerering, redigering og forlængelse med op til 30 billeder, 10 videoer og 10 lydfiler

En `task`-indstilling skifter mellem referencebaseret generering, redigering af en referencevideo og forlængelse af en video. Accepterer op til 30 billeder, 10 videoer og 10 lydfiler som referencer, nævnt som @Image1 og lignende. Output er 480p, 720p eller 1080p, auto eller 4 til 30 sekunder, med billedformater fra 21:9 til 9:16. Understøtter `seed` og `bitrate_mode`.

- Model id: `bytedance/seedance-2.5/us/reference-to-video`
- Made by: ByteDance
- Category: Reference to Video
- Output: video
- Charged by usage (up to $6.944 per run; the rest of the hold is refunded): $0.0107 / 1000 tokens (cheapest run $0.416 (416 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.ru/v1/run/bytedance/seedance-2.5/us/reference-to-video`

## Pricing

Price: **$0.0107 / 1000 tokens**. Charged by actual usage at $0.0107 / 1000 tokens: up to $6.944 per run (the quote gives the maximum for your input), the rest is refunded automatically after the run.

The full example input below holds up to $6.944 = 6944 API credits (up to 648.9 × 1000 tokens × $0.0107) when it starts.

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). This model is charged by usage: `POST https://api.doitong.ru/v1/quote/bytedance/seedance-2.5/us/reference-to-video` with the same JSON body returns the most the run can cost for that input (`credits`, debited when the run starts); after the run you pay the usage the model reports and the rest is refunded automatically. An input whose maximum would exceed the per-run limit is refused with 422. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `prompt` |  | string \| null | no |  |  | Tekstprompt, der styrer videogenerering. |
| `task` |  | enum (string) | no | `reference` | `reference`, `editing`, `extension` | Valg af videoopgave med tre funktioner: `reference` styrer genereringen ved hjælp af angivne medier, editing ændrer en referencevideo, og extension fortsætter en. Både editing og extension sætter automatisk `aspect_ratio` til `auto`; editing sætter også `duration` til `auto`. |
| `image_urls` | `images` | array of image URL | no |  |  | Billedreferencer til videogenerering, begrænset til 30 billeder og højst 50 filer på tværs af alle modaliteter. Hvert billede må højst være 30 MB og skal være JPG, PNG, WebP, BMP, TIFF, GIF, HEIC eller HEIF. Brug @Image1, @Image2 og efterfølgende nummererede etiketter til at identificere referencerne i prompten. |
| `video_urls` | `videos` | array of video URL | no |  |  | Angiv op til 10 referencevideoer som MP4- eller MOV-filer for at styre genereringen, og identificér dem i prompten med @Video1, @Video2 og efterfølgende nummererede etiketter. Hver fil må højst være 200 MB og vare 1.8–30.2 sekunder, og alle klip må tilsammen højst vare 30.2 sekunder. Videoerne skal have 24–60 FPS, et formatforhold på 0.4–2.5 og 300–6,000 pixels på hver side. |
| `audio_urls` | `audios` | array of audio URL | no |  |  | Lydreferencer til videogenerering har en samlet varighedsgrænse på 30.2 sekunder fordelt på højst 10 filer. Hver skal være MP3 eller WAV, vare 1.8–30.2 sekunder og højst være 15 MB. Identificér filerne i prompten med @Audio1, @Audio2 og efterfølgende nummererede etiketter. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `720p` | `480p`, `720p`, `1080p` | Outputopløsning: 480p prioriterer hastighed, 720p giver saldo, og 1080p leverer høj kvalitet. |
| `duration` |  | enum (string) | no | `auto` | `auto`, `4`, `5`, `6`, `7`, `8`, `9`, `10`, `11`, `12`, `13`, `14`, `15`, `16`, `17`, `18`, `19`, `20`, `21`, `22`, `23`, `24`, `25`, `26`, `27`, `28`, `29`, `30` | Valg af videolængde: `auto` overlader valget til modellen ved hjælp af prompten, mens en eksplicit varighed skal være fra 4 til 30 sekunder. |
| `aspect_ratio` |  | enum (string) | no | `auto` | `auto`, `21:9`, `16:9`, `4:3`, `1:1`, `3:4`, `9:16` | Outputformatforhold: 16:9 giver landskab, 9:16 giver portræt/vertikal, 1:1 giver kvadratisk, og 21:9 giver filmisk ultrabredt format. Vælg `auto`, så modellen vælger forholdet. |
| `generate_audio` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Aktivér dette for at ledsage videoen med synkroniseret lyd. Den genererede lyd indeholder tale tilpasset læbebevægelser, miljøstemning og lydeffekter. |
| `bitrate_mode` |  | enum (string) | no | `standard` | `standard`, `high` | Vælg bitrate for outputkodningen: 'standard' bevarer standarden, mens 'high' beder modellen forbedre kodningskvaliteten på bekostning af en større fil. |
| `codec` |  | enum (string) | no | `auto` | `auto`, `H264`, `H265` | Valg af videocodec: `auto` lader standardcodecens adfærd være uændret, `H264` vælger H.264, og `H265` vælger H.265. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Tilfældig seed, der gør genereringen reproducerbar uden at garantere nøjagtig gentagelse: genbrug kan stadig give lidt forskellige resultater. |
| `end_user_id` |  | string \| null | no |  |  | Entydig identifikator tildelt slutbrugeren. |

File parameters (`images`, `videos`, `audios`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.ru/v1/run/bytedance/seedance-2.5/us/reference-to-video?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.ru/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.ru/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/bytedance/seedance-2.5/us/reference-to-video?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.ru/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/bytedance/seedance-2.5/us/reference-to-video", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.ru/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "bytedance/seedance-2.5/us/reference-to-video",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
