# Ltx 2.3 Quality · Extend Video API

> Continúa un vídeo hacia delante o hacia atrás, con una imagen opcional de fotograma clave final

Amplía un clip existente generando nuevas imágenes guiadas por un `prompt` obligatorio. `extend_direction` es `forward` para continuar desde el final o `backward` para crear un nuevo principio. `num_context_frames` (9 to 121) establece cuánto se solapa la fuente, y `num_frames` (9 to 481) define la duración del segmento. Un `end_image_url` opcional fija el fotograma clave final, y `match_input_fps` mantiene la velocidad de fotogramas de la fuente.

- Price per megapixel of your output video: $0.00241 / megapixel of output video (cheapest run $0.003 (3 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/ltx-2.3-quality/extend-video`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/ltx-2.3-quality/extend-video`

## Pricing

Price: **$0.00241 / 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 $0.27 = 270 API credits (112 MP output video × $0.002408).

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-quality/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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  |  | Prompt que especifica la continuación deseada del vídeo. |
| `video_url` | `video` | string (video URL) | yes |  |  | URL que apunta al vídeo que se ampliará. |
| `extend_direction` |  | enum (string) | no | `forward` | `forward`, `backward` | Modo de ampliación del vídeo: 'backward' crea un nuevo inicio, mientras que 'forward' continúa el vídeo más allá de su final. |
| `num_frames` |  | integer | no | `121` | 9 – 481 | Número de fotogramas de ampliación, sujeto a un presupuesto de generación estable basado en la resolución multiplicada por los fotogramas: a 24 fps, aproximadamente 20 segundos para la clase 480p, 11 segundos para la clase 720p o 5 segundos para la clase 1080p. Las solicitudes que superen el presupuesto devuelven 422; reduce `num_frames` o elige una resolución menor. El número incluye `num_context_frames` que se solapan con el origen, por lo que la duración añadida es aproximadamente (`num_frames` - `num_context_frames`) / `frames_per_second` segundos. |
| `num_context_frames` |  | integer | no | `25` | 9 – 121 | Número de fotogramas de origen solicitado para el contexto o solapamiento de la ampliación, limitado por la cantidad de fotogramas que contiene el origen. El número se redondea hacia abajo para ajustarse a la cuadrícula LTX de 8k+1. |
| `end_image_url` | `end_image` | string (image URL) \| null | no |  |  | Imagen de fotograma clave opcional que establece el nuevo primer fotograma de la ampliación al ampliar hacia atrás o el último al ampliar hacia delante. |
| `end_image_strength` |  | number | no | `1` | 0 – 1 | Intensidad opcional del condicionamiento del fotograma clave final: reducirla permite más libertad al modelo, mientras que 1.0 exige una coincidencia exacta. |
| `resolution` |  | object {width, height} \| enum (string) | no | `auto` | `auto`, `square_hd`, `square`, `portrait_4_3`, `portrait_16_9`, `landscape_4_3`, `landscape_16_9` | Dimensiones del vídeo generado, alineadas con incrementos de 32px —por ejemplo, 1920x1080 se convierte en 1888x1056—, con el origen redimensionado a estas dimensiones para la salida cosida. Las ampliaciones estables pueden ser más largas a resoluciones bajas y más cortas a resoluciones altas. Elegir 'auto' conserva las dimensiones y la relación de aspecto del origen dentro de los límites de LTX. |
| `match_input_fps` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Coincidencia de la frecuencia de fotogramas de salida con la del origen cuando está activada, anulando `frames_per_second`. Los FPS del origen se redondean a un entero y se restringen al intervalo admitido. |
| `frames_per_second` |  | number | no | `24` | 1 – 60 | Frecuencia de fotogramas del vídeo de salida, medida en fotogramas por segundo. |
| `video_strength` |  | number | no | `1` | 0 – 1 | Intensidad del condicionamiento del contexto de origen: reducirla permite más libertad al modelo. Con 1.0, los fotogramas solapados permanecen fijados al origen, haciendo que la transición sea fluida. |
| `num_inference_steps` |  | integer | no | `15` | 8 – 30 | Establece cuántos pasos de inferencia ejecutar, hasta 30; si no se modifica, usa 15. |
| `guidance_scale` |  | number | no | `1` | 1 – 20 | Ajusta la guía sin clasificador mediante esta escala; su ajuste predeterminado busca alta calidad y generación rápida. |
| `generate_audio` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Interruptor del audio de ampliación: desactivado deja en silencio el segmento añadido y conserva la pista de audio del vídeo de origen. Activado genera audio para la ampliación y aplica un fundido cruzado con el origen en la unión. |
| `negative_prompt` |  | string | no | `color distortion, overexposure, static, blurry details, subtitles, style, artwork, painting, frame, still, dim overall tone, worst quality, low quality, JPEG compression artifacts, ugly, mutilated, extra fingers, poorly drawn hands, poorly drawn face, deformed, disfigured, malformed limbs, fused fingers, motionless frame, cluttered background, three legs, crowded background, walking backwards` |  | Prompt negativo que especifica lo que debe evitar la generación. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Semilla que hace reproducible la generación. Establecerla en None selecciona una semilla aleatoriamente. |
| `enable_prompt_expansion` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Controla si está habilitada la expansión del prompt. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Controla si está activada la comprobación de seguridad. |
| `video_quality` |  | enum (string) | no | `high` | `low`, `medium`, `high`, `maximum` | Preajuste de calidad aplicado al vídeo de salida. |
| `video_write_mode` |  | enum (string) | no | `balanced` | `fast`, `balanced`, `small` | Modo de escritura del vídeo resultante. |

File parameters (`video`, `end_image`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

### 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-quality/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.
