Videos

Upscale a previously generated video to twice its resolution (2x). Pass the video `url` you received from `createVideo`, `createVideoFromReferences`, or `editVideo` - it must be a video you generated within the last 7 days; arbitrary external videos are not accepted. Both dimensions of the source must be under 960 pixels: griffin (480p) output qualifies; griffin-hd (720p) output does not, landscape or portrait (only a square 720x720 would) - generate on griffin if you intend to upscale. A too-large source fails the job and the held credits are refunded. The job result is the new video URL (2x width and height, same duration) and its duration in seconds. Billed per second of video, independent of model; held when the job is accepted and refunded if it fails or is cancelled. Pass an optional `request_id` to tag the result so you can locate it later via listGenerations (type video). Related tools: `createVideo` for image-to-video, `editVideo` to modify a generated video. Requires an API key (user scope). The call returns 202 with a job id - poll getApiJob (pass wait 30 to long-poll) honouring poll_after_ms, until status is succeeded; its result field is exactly the response documented for this operation. Synchronous responses are deprecated but still supported: pass `async: false` to block until the result is ready and receive it as the response body. Synchronous calls run on the same queue: the response carries an X-Ludo-Job-Id header, and a job still running after 15 minutes comes back as 202 with the job instead of an error. Each account may have up to 50 generations queued or running at once via the API; a request beyond that returns 429 (code PENDING_JOBS_LIMIT).

Request body

videostring required

URL of a video you generated in the last 7 days (returned by createVideo, createVideoFromReferences, or editVideo). External URLs are not accepted. Both dimensions must be under 960 pixels (griffin 480p output qualifies; griffin-hd 720p output does not, except square).

request_idstring

Optional client-provided identifier, unique per request. Re-sending the same request_id returns the existing job instead of generating again. Also usable as the request_id filter of listGenerations.

asyncboolean

Defaults to true: the call returns 202 immediately with a job id to poll with getApiJob. Set false for a synchronous response (deprecated but supported): the call then blocks until the result is ready.

Response

Success

urlstring

URL to the generated video file

durationnumber float

Duration of the video in seconds
