# LTX-2.3 22B · Extend Video API

> Continues an existing video from a prompt, with generated audio and an optional end image

Takes `video_url` and a `prompt` and generates a continuation of `num_frames` frames (9 to 481). An optional `end_image_url` sets where the extension finishes. `match_input_fps` keeps the source frame rate, `generate_audio` adds sound, and `video_size` defaults to auto. Output can be mp4, webm, mov or GIF.

## Pricing

Price: **$0.00161 / megapixel of output video**. Price per megapixel of your output video: the input files are measured before the run (length, resolution, frame rate). The quote measures the same files and is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $0.18 = 180 API credits (112 MP output video × $0.001605).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/ltx-2.3-22b/extend-video` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |

| `gradient_estimation_gamma` |  | number | no | `2` | 0 – 10 | Denoising gradient-estimation setting: 0 turns estimation off; otherwise, the value specifies gamma. |
| `use_restart_sampling` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Restart sampling toggle for potentially better video quality: enabling it introduces a little noise at every denoising step. |

| `video_strength` |  | number | no | `1` | 0 – 1 | Freedom to alter video content is controlled by this conditioning strength: smaller settings allow the model greater latitude. |
| `audio_strength` |  | number | no | `1` | 0 – 1 | Freedom to alter audio content is controlled by this conditioning strength: smaller settings allow the model greater latitude. |
| `end_image_strength` |  | number | no | `1` | 0 – 1 | Control how much the end image influences the generated video. |

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/ltx-2.3-22b/extend-video?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \

    "video_url": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:

    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "ltx-2.3-22b/extend-video",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
        "video_url": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
