# Ltx 2.3 Quality · Colorization API

> Effetto video che aggiunge colore a un video sorgente, ad esempio a una pellicola in bianco e nero

Applica una trasformazione di colorizzazione al clip fornito in `video_url`. Un breve `prompt` facoltativo che descrive la scena può guidare il risultato. Scegli l'output 480p o 720p; 720p supporta circa 6 secondi e 480p circa 15 secondi. Il numero di fotogrammi (da 9 a 481), la frequenza dei fotogrammi (da 1 a 60) e `num_inference_steps` (da 8 a 30) sono regolabili.

- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/ltx-2.3-quality/colorization`

## 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/colorization` 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `video_url` | `video` | string (video URL) | yes |  |  | URL che identifica il video sorgente per la trasformazione. |
| `prompt` |  | string | no | `` |  | Descrizione breve e opzionale della scena o del contenuto che sostituisce la descrizione generica quando questo campo è vuoto. Per rendere il risultato più preciso, il testo fornito viene incorporato nella didascalia su cui è stato addestrato l'effetto. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `720p` | `480p`, `720p` | Sceglie la risoluzione del lato corto dell'output mantenendo il rapporto d'aspetto della sorgente: 480p produce risultati più morbidi per clip fino a circa 15 secondi, mentre 720p produce risultati più nitidi fino a circa 6 secondi. Scegli 480p per clip più lunghe perché il percorso di controllo IC-LoRA limita il prodotto tra risoluzione e numero di fotogrammi; le richieste che superano questo budget vengono rifiutate con un errore chiaro. Calcola la durata dell'output come `num_frames` / `frames_per_second`. |
| `num_frames` |  | integer | no | `121` | 9 – 481 | Numero di fotogrammi dell'output, soggetto a un budget IC-LoRA sul prodotto tra risoluzione e fotogrammi: circa 6 secondi a 720p o 15 secondi a 480p. Il superamento del budget restituisce 422; riduci `num_frames` o seleziona 480p. La durata della clip in secondi equivale a `num_frames` / `frames_per_second`. |
| `frames_per_second` |  | number | no | `24` | 1 – 60 | Fotogramma rate del video di output, misurato in fotogrammi al secondo. |
| `num_inference_steps` |  | integer | no | `15` | 8 – 30 | Imposta quanti passaggi di inferenza eseguire, fino a 30; se lasciato invariato, usa 15. |
| `guidance_scale` |  | number | no | `1` | 1 – 20 | Regola la guidance classifier-free usando questa scala; la sua regolazione predefinita mira a un'elevata qualità e a una generazione rapida. |
| `generate_audio` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Interruttore della traccia audio per l'MP4 restituito: disattivato produce un file solo video, mentre attivato include l'audio. |
| `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 che specifica cosa la generazione deve evitare. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Seed che rende riproducibile la generazione. Impostarlo su None seleziona casualmente un seed. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Controlla se il controllo di sicurezza è abilitato. |
| `video_quality` |  | enum (string) | no | `high` | `low`, `medium`, `high`, `maximum` | Preset di qualità applicato al video di output. |
| `video_write_mode` |  | enum (string) | no | `balanced` | `fast`, `balanced`, `small` | Modalità di scrittura del video risultante. |

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

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "video": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{

}
```

## 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-quality/colorization?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "video_url": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call

let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "video_url": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/ltx-2.3-quality/colorization", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### 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/colorization",
      "input": {
        "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.
