MediaTofuResize video with one API call
Resize video with one API call
POST /v1/tools/video/resize with an input URL or file id and width, height, or both. Give one side and the other follows the aspect ratio. Output is an H.264 MP4; short jobs can return their result in the same request with ?wait=25.
Example
curl "https://api.mediatofu.com/v1/tools/video/resize?wait=25" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $MEDIATOFU_KEY" \
-d '{ "input": "https://example.com/clip.mp4", "height": 720 }'With ?wait=25 a short job can return its result in the same request. Short jobs typically take about 5–15 seconds including container start. Leave wait off and poll GET /v1/jobs/:id, or pass webhook_url on a paid plan.
Options
width may be 16–3840 and height 16–2160. Provide at least one. The tool re-encodes as H.264 with AAC.

Questions
How do I get the result?
Add ?wait=25 and a short job can return its result in the same request. Short jobs typically take about 5–15 seconds including container start. 25 seconds is the longest wait. Otherwise you get a job id to check with GET /v1/jobs/:id, or on a paid plan you can pass webhook_url and we POST the result to you.
Do failed jobs cost anything?
A failure on our side is never charged, and neither is an input we couldn't download, one over your plan's size limit, or an image that could not be read. If your command runs and FFmpeg exits with an error, or the job reaches your plan's length limit, the seconds it used count. Nothing retries automatically.
