`POST /v1/studio/convert`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://apihub.co.il`
- URL: `https://apihub.co.il/v1/studio/convert`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Output mp4 / webm / mov / gif, or audio only (mp3 / wav / m4a). Also resize, speed up/slow down, mute, normalise loudness.

**Billing:** Per second of output (≤720p / 1080p tiers; audio and images cheaper) + transcription seconds when captions or silence removal transcribe automatically + the voice clean-up per second of output when asked for (`audio.denoise` / `enhance`, off by default) and only when it found noise to reduce or enhanced the voice (`auto` on a clean recording is free) + effect seconds for a heavy engine effect in `effects` (its seconds on screen × its measured weight — GET /v1/effects). Failed renders are not charged. · **Rate limit:** 30/min · **Asynchronous**

## Headers

- `Idempotency-Key` string
- `X-Tag` string
- `x-wait-ms` integer

## Request body

- object
  - `mute` boolean
  - `trim` object
    - `end` number: seconds
    - `start` number: seconds
  - `speed` number

    - `background` string: Bar colour for fit=pad
    - `resolution` '480' | '720' | '1080' | 'source': Short side in pixels (1080 = Full HD). `source` keeps the input size, max 1080
