Bria Video Background Removal

Bria VRMBG 3.0 removes the background of talking heads, podcasts, product videos and commercials, and can paint a solid background color instead of transparency. It keeps the audio track.

Endpoint

POST https://api.roasos.com/v1/video-edit/bria

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

A talking-head cut-out on a colored plate (choose background_color). Background removal that must keep the source audio. Use /v1/video-edit/veed-fast or /v1/video-edit/veed-standard when you need transparency only and a longer clip (Bria accepts sources under 30 s today). It has no prompt.

Pricing

The unit is one source_second. Pricing key: bria-video-bg-remove.

RequestCredits
5s_source3
10s_source6
29s_source18

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.

Media

This endpoint accepts these media roles:

  • video_url — the source video
RoleItemsMaximum sizeContent typesDuration

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, audio_url, 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.

Example

The three steps are always the same: quote, run, poll.

# 1. Quote. Nothing is spent.
curl -X POST https://api.roasos.com/v1/video-edit/bria \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer roasos_sk_live_..." \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: 0f1c9e2a-bria-0001" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"quote_only":true,"video_url":"https://cdn.roasos.com/workspaces/ws_01/uploads/video_url.mp4"}'
# 200 { "data": { "kind": "quote", "quote_id": "q_7Hk...", "credits": 3, "expires_at": "...",
#        "confirmation": { "model": "bria", "example": "5s_source" } } }

# 2. Run. Same body, same Idempotency-Key, quote_id in place of quote_only.
curl -X POST https://api.roasos.com/v1/video-edit/bria \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer roasos_sk_live_..." \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: 0f1c9e2a-bria-0001" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"quote_id":"q_7Hk...","video_url":"https://cdn.roasos.com/workspaces/ws_01/uploads/video_url.mp4"}'
# 201 { "data": { "id": "gen_...", "status": "queued", "credits_reserved": 3 } }

# 3. Poll, then read the result.
curl https://api.roasos.com/v1/jobs/gen_.../status -H "Authorization: Bearer roasos_sk_live_..."
curl https://api.roasos.com/v1/jobs/gen_.../result -H "Authorization: Bearer roasos_sk_live_..."

Today

POST /v1/video-edit/bria is live. The price is the measured duration of the source clip. The source must be an MP4 shorter than 30 seconds and smaller than 4000 pixels on each side; anything outside that envelope is refused with 400 unsupported_media. Bria accepts any frame rate.
