SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Removing sound from a video normally requires desktop editing software or command-line tools like ffmpeg. This Skill lets an AI agent strip the audio track from any video URL through a single Pixazo API call, returning a silent MP4 that preserves the original resolution, frame rate, and duration. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Audio stripping via API: Send a video URL to the Pixazo video-strip-audio endpoint and receive a silent MP4, with H.264 sources stream-copied so the picture is untouched. - Guided authentication: Walks the agent through obtaining and storing a Pixazo API key once at ~/.pixazo/api-key. - Error handling: Maps 401, 402, 429, 4xx, and 5xx responses to clear user-facing messages with retry guidance. - Use Case: A content creator has a screen recording with unwanted background noise and asks the agent to remove the sound; the agent calls the API and returns a clean silent video ready for a new voiceover. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to remove the audio from your video by providing its URL, for example: strip the audio from https://example.com/clip.mov using the Pixazo Video Audio Remover.

FAQPage Schema
How do I remove audio from a video using an API?▼

Send a POST request to the Pixazo video-strip-audio endpoint with your API key in the Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key header and a JSON body containing the video_url. The response returns a URL to a silent MP4 with the original resolution, frame rate, and duration.

What video formats and sizes does the audio remover support?▼

The API accepts video sources up to about 35 MB via a URL. H.264 sources are stream-copied so the picture is untouched, while other codecs are re-encoded to H.264 in the output MP4.

Does removing audio re-encode or degrade the video quality?▼

For H.264 sources the video stream is copied directly, so the picture is completely untouched. Videos in other codecs are re-encoded to H.264, which may involve a quality change.

Why do I get a 401 error from the Pixazo API?▼

A 401 means the API key is missing or invalid. Generate a fresh key at https://api-console.pixazo.ai/api_keys and pass it in the Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key header, either via the PIXAZO_API_KEY environment variable or the ~/.pixazo/api-key file.

Is the video audio removal synchronous or does it require polling?▼

The operation is synchronous, so no polling is needed. The API responds directly with JSON containing the output video URL once processing completes.
