  • Endpoint: POST /api/split_video
  • Input: Video URL and optional split point in seconds
  • Output: Two video segments ready for use
curl -X POST https://ffmpegapi.net/api/split_video \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"video_url": "https://example.com/video.mp4", "split_at_seconds": 12.5}'
import requests

url = 'https://ffmpegapi.net/api/split_video'
data = {"video_url": "https://example.com/video.mp4", "split_at_seconds": 12.5}

response = requests.post(url, json=data)
print(response.json())
