Running a model
Topaz LabsVideo to videoTopaz Labs Starlight Precise 2.5
Diffusion-based video enhancement with photorealistic detail and temporal consistency
One of Auray's catalogue models: the same key, the same credits, the same job lifecycle as every other address.
Its request shape is published below. Whether it runs right now is GET /v1/catalogue's word, with no key needed: its addresses say connected for an address that runs, and a submit to any other is refused before anything is charged — described answers 501 model_not_connected, paused 503 model_disabled.
Category video-to-video · Scope video:write (or external:write on an older key) · Price Credits per megapixel (counted as width*height): 19.7725. From 2.0736 to 8.2944 megapixels a request. A request that sends inputs.video is refused before any charge: it has no price on this model. Quoted when you submit, at the most the request can cost; the charge settles to what the job cost and never above the quote. The submit's answer carries the quote as credits_quoted, and credits_charged says what has been taken.
#Input
| Field | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
width | integer | yes | 1920 | Target output width. The aspect ratio is preserved by computing an upscaling factor using the shorter edge. Documented range: 1 to 3,840. |
height | integer | yes | 1080 | Target output height. The aspect ratio is preserved by computing an upscaling factor using the shorter edge. Documented range: 1 to 2,160. |
fps | number | no | — | Output frame rate. Minimum is 15 or the input video's frame rate, whichever is higher. Documented range: 15 to 120. |
outputQuality | integer | no | 95 | Compression quality of the output. Higher values preserve quality but increase file size. Documented range: 20 to 99. |
outputType | string | no | "URL" | Video output type. One of "URL". |
outputFormat | string | no | "MP4" | Specifies the file format of the generated output. The available values depend on the task type and the specific model's capabilities. - `JPG`: Best for photorealistic images with smaller file sizes (no transparency). - `PNG`: Lossless compression, supports high quality and transparency (alpha channel). - `WEBP`: Modern format providing superior compression and transparency support. - `MP4`: Widely supported video container (H.264), recommended for general use. - `WEBM`: Optimized for web delivery. - `MOV`: QuickTime format, common in professional workflows (Apple ecosystem). - `GIF`: Animated image format (no audio), suitable for short loops or previews. - `MP3`: Compressed audio, smaller file size. - `WAV`: Uncompressed, high-quality audio. - `FLAC`: Lossless compression. - `OGG`: Open-source compressed audio format (Vorbis codec). - `SVG`: Scalable Vector Graphics. - `TIFF`: High-quality output supporting layers. - `GLB`: Binary glTF format for 3D models, including geometry, textures, and PBR materials. > [!NOTE] > **Transparency**: If you are using features like background removal or LayerDiffuse that require transparency, you must select a format that supports an alpha channel (e.g., `PNG`, `WEBP`, `TIFF`). `JPG` does not support transparency. One of "MP4", "WEBM", "MOV". |
inputs | object | yes | — | |
inputs.video | string | yes | — | Video input (an http(s) URL; upload a local file first and send its read URL). A URL. |
idempotency_key | string | no | — | Your own name for this request. Send the same one twice and the second call is answered with the first request rather than charged again. Idempotency-Key: as a header is accepted as an alias — that is the spelling a retrying proxy replays, and the one to use when running a model on auray.run, where a request that outlives its connection is answered 504 and recovered by replay. Omit it and the platform mints one. 1 to 64 characters. |
