FFmpeg Merge Audio and Video

Merge Audio and Video puts an audio track onto a finished clip. It replaces the clip's audio; it does not mix.

Endpoint

POST https://api.roasos.com/v1/assembly/merge-audio-video

Send your API key as a bearer token. The key needs the scope api:write. Every paid request also needs an Idempotency-Key header.

The envelope fields quote_only, quote_id, webhook_url and wait_timeout_seconds behave the same on each model endpoint. Refer to Jobs and Quotes and credits.

Good at

Drop a generated voice-over or a music bed onto a finished cut. start_offset_seconds delays the audio relative to the video, and it is in SECONDS on this operation — Compose counts milliseconds and Images to Video counts frames, and nothing converts between them for you.

Use Compose instead when you need the source audio kept, or two audio sources together: this operation replaces the track.

The price is one credit, flat.

Pricing

The unit is one operation. Pricing key: merge-audio-video.

RequestCredits
per_operation1

The credits come from the roasOS pricing table. No other field changes the price. To get the exact price of your request, send it with quote_only: true first.

The schema is strict. A field that is not in this table gets 400 unsupported_option. The field names are the roasOS role names. One role has one name in every family.

Media

This endpoint accepts these media roles:

  • video_url — the source video
  • audio_url — the driving audio track
RoleItemsMaximum sizeContent typesDuration
audio_url≤ 115 MBaudio/mp3, audio/mpeg, audio/wav, audio/wave, audio/x-wav—
video_url≤ 1100 MBvideo/mp40–180 s

Every other role is refused: avatar_id, elements, product_id, product_images, references, reference_images, image_url, end_image_url, scene_id, scene_image, video_urls, audio_urls, voice_id. A refused role gets 400 unsupported_option.

Each media URL must be an immutable object on https://cdn.roasos.com that your workspace owns. Any other URL gets 400 reference_media_not_workspace_owned. Refer to Reference media and uploads to learn how to put a file there.

    "status": "completed",
    "result": {
      "url": "https://cdn.roasos.com/workspaces/ws_01/result"
