Body

application/json

Request model for submitting a single FFmpeg command.

This model allows submitting an FFmpeg command with input and output file specifications. Input file aliases must start with 'in_' and direct to a publicly accessible file, and output file aliases must start with 'out_' and only name a file name to be created.

If you're using an automation platform where curly brackets are used special as characters (like make.com, zapier, or other) add backslashes before the curly brackets, for example, replace {{in_1}} with backslashes and brackets \{\{in_1\}\}.

​
input_files
Input Files · object
required

Dictionary mapping file aliases to their publicly accessible paths, file name should appear in the end of the url, keys are alphanumeric, with underscore allowed, must start with 'in_'. You can use public file urls, google drive, dropbox, rendi stored files, s3 stored files, etc. as long as they are publicly accessible. When using input_compressed_folder field, this field is not required.

Example:
{
  "in_1": "https://storage.rendi.dev/sample/big_buck_bunny_720p_5sec_intro.mp4",
  "in_2": "https://storage.rendi.dev/sample/big_buck_bunny_720p_5sec_outro.mp4"
}
​
output_files
Output Files · object
required

Dictionary mapping file aliases to their desired output file names, keys are alphanumeric, with underscore allowed, must start with 'out_'

Example:

"-i {{in_1}} -i {{in_2}} -filter_complex \"[0:v][1:v]hstack=inputs=2[v]\" -map [v] {{out_1}}"
