Inputs and settings

Select text, image or reference mode. Image mode requires image_url, optionally takes end_image_url and follows the input aspect ratio automatically. Reference mode uses image_urls.

Choose 4–30 seconds and 480p, 720p or 1080p. Choose an explicit aspect ratio for text/reference mode and select generate_audio. Automatic duration is unavailable.

Reference mode currently supports image guidance; editing, extension and video/audio references are unavailable. Encoding is fixed to standard bitrate and automatic codec. 1080p has a higher token rate; review the quote before submission.

Supported inputs

These fields come from the current studio form for bytedance/seedance-2.5/us/text-to-video. Other modes may require different inputs.
