Using the Split Audio by Segments Endpoint
Our 'Split Audio by Segments' endpoint allows you to divide an audio file into fixed-duration segments seamlessly. This feature is especially beneficial for developers creating content management systems or AI applications that require audio segmentation.
The endpoint can be called using a simple POST request, making it both efficient and easy to implement.
- Endpoint Path: /api/split_audio_segments
- Method: POST
- Content Type: application/json
curl -X POST https://www.ffmpegapi.net/api/split_audio_segments \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"audio_url": "https://example.com/podcast.mp3", "segment_duration": 10}'import requests
url = 'https://www.ffmpegapi.net/api/split_audio_segments'
payload = {
'audio_url': 'https://example.com/podcast.mp3',
'segment_duration': 10
}
response = requests.post(url, json=payload)
print(response.json())Parameters for the Split Audio by Segments API
The API requires the following parameters to function effectively. Understanding these parameters will help you tailor your audio segmentation needs.
1. **audio_url**: The URL of the audio file you want to process. This parameter is mandatory.
2. **segment_duration**: An optional parameter defining the length of each audio segment in seconds. The default value is set to 30 seconds, but you can adjust it between 1 and 3600 seconds.
3. **async**: A boolean parameter that allows the process to run in the background, returning a job_id immediately.
