Processing Time

Video Preview is a time intensive process. First time requests will return 423 for a few minutes until the video is fully processed. Either poll the URL until you receive a video response or check again after a few minutes to see the generated preview.

Intelligently select key segments from your video to compile a concise and engaging preview, ideal for showcasing highlights or providing quick overviews.

The video-preview parameter enables the generation of AI-created video previews by analyzing your original video content. It works alongside video-preview-duration and video-preview-segment-duration to define the total length of the preview and the minimum duration of each extracted segment.
