How the Image and Audio Merge Endpoint Works

The Image and Audio Merge endpoint enables you to create MP4 videos from image/audio pairs. You can upload multiple images and audio files, controlling the duration of each image based on its corresponding audio file.

The API supports optional features such as image transitions and a default slow zoom effect, enhancing the visual appeal of your videos.

  • Create videos from multiple image/audio pairs.
  • Control image duration using audio duration.
  • Support for various transition effects.

Making Your First API Call

To use this endpoint, simply send a POST request to the /api/merge_image_audio path. You can include your images and audio in an array format or as single items. Here's an example of a JSON request using multiple pairs:

{
  "image_urls": [
    "https://example.com/intro.jpg",
    "https://example.com/chapter-1.jpg"
  ],
  "audio_urls": [
    "https://example.com/intro.mp3",
    "https://example.com/chapter-1.mp3"
  ],
  "transition_effect": "fade",
  "transition_duration": 0.75,
  "dimensions": "1280x720",
  "zoom_effect": true,
  "async": false
}

Practical Example Using Curl

Here's how you can use Curl to call the merge endpoint and create your video seamlessly. This example uses the same parameters as before:

curl -X POST https://ffmpegapi.net/api/merge_image_audio \ 
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ 
-d '{
  "image_urls": [
    "https://example.com/intro.jpg",
    "https://example.com/chapter-1.jpg"
  ],
  "audio_urls": [
    "https://example.com/intro.mp3",
    "https://example.com/chapter-1.mp3"
  ],
  "transition_effect": "fade",
  "transition_duration": 0.75,
  "dimensions": "1280x720",
  "zoom_effect": true,
  "async": false
}'
