# v1.x request
body = {
"model_name": "kling-v1-6",
"prompt": "A sunset over mountains",
"duration": "5",
"mode": "standard",
}
# v2.x -- only model_name changes
body["model_name"] = "kling-v2-master"
Breaking changes:
kling-v2-1 is I2V-only (no text-to-video support)body["model_name"] = "kling-v2-6"
body["motion_has_audio"] = True # NEW: synchronized audio
# Cost impact: audio multiplies credits 5x
# 5s standard: 10 -> 50 credits
