One node, nine resources, covering the full Video Api Hub API.
Auto Caption Video
| Operation |
Description |

Transcribe a video's audio and burn in animated, word-level captions. Choose a style preset, optionally add automatic or image-based b-roll, provide an ISO language hint, and set the output width and height |
HTML Video ⭐
Render HTML compositions to video using Hyperframes. Write standard HTML with CSS, GSAP animations, Lottie, Google Fonts, or any browser-renderable content — rendered frame-by-frame via headless Chrome and encoded to MP4.
| Operation |
Description |
| Create HTML Video |
Render an HTML composition to video. Accepts raw HTML (auto Base64-encoded), width, height, FPS, output format, and injectable variables (window.__hfVariables) |
HTML Composition Rules:
- Use GSAP for animations:
gsap.timeline({ paused: true })
- Register timeline:
window.__timelines["<composition-id>"] = tl
- Root element needs:
data-composition-id, data-start="0", data-width, data-height
- Each clip needs:
id, class="clip", data-start, data-duration, data-track-index
- GSAP CDN:
https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/gsap@3.14.2/dist/gsap.min.js
- Google Fonts work via
<link> tags
