Character Swap - Analyze
Detect and track every person in a video before assigning replacement character references.
Character Swap Analyze is the first stage of the two-step Character Swap workflow. It follows people across the input video and returns the obj_id values and track_manifest_url required by the Generate stage. This model does not replace anyone by itself. Keep the analysis result together with the original video and resolution so the next request uses a consistent set of inputs.
Key Features
- Person detection and tracking: Identifies people in the video and builds object tracks across frames.
- Selectable previews: Returns an
objectslist with each person'sobj_id, preview, mask, and coverage information. - Generate-ready manifest: Produces a
track_manifest_urlthat can be passed directly to Character Swap Generate. - Video metadata: Includes width, height, FPS, and frame count in
video_info. - 480p and 720p analysis: Lets you select the same resolution that will be used for generation.
Technical Specifications
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Workflow | Character Swap step 1 |
| Required input | video_url |
| Maximum video length | 30 seconds |
| Resolution | 480p, 720p (default) |
| Main outputs | objects, track_manifest_url, video_info |
| Next model | namifusion/character-swap/generate |
Basic Workflow
- Send the video URL and selected resolution to
namifusion/character-swap/analyze. - Poll the task result endpoint until processing completes.
- Review the previews in
objectsand select theobj_idvalues to replace. - Pass the same
video_url, returnedtrack_manifest_url, and selected IDs to the Generate stage.
Pricing
The existing Marketplace rate is 10 credits per analysis request. This documentation update does not change pricing.
Best Practices
Use a video no longer than 30 seconds in which each person remains clearly visible. Heavy motion blur, long full occlusions, and very small subjects can reduce tracking quality. In Generate, use the same video, resolution, and manifest produced by this Analyze task; do not mix results from separate analyses.
