# HiDream Video FAQ

## What is HiDream Video?

A generator that turns a still image plus a text prompt into a video clip. Use a start frame for the opening and describe the action, scene change, and camera move.

## What is HiDream O1 Video?

A mode that adds a reference video — the new shot follows the camera move, pacing, or visual change of a clip you supply.

## Does it support start and end frames?

Yes. Upload both and the video begins on the first picture and moves toward the second.

## Which durations, ratios, and resolutions are supported?

HiDream Video: 5, 10, or 15 seconds at 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, or 3:4 in 480p, 720p, or 1080p. O1 Video: 1–30 seconds at 480p or 720p.

## How many credits does a generation use?

A 5-second clip costs 160 credits at 480p, 240 at 720p, and 360 at 1080p, scaling with duration. A 5-second O1 clip at 720p costs 315 credits. The editor shows the cost before generating.

## Can I try it for free?

You can open the editor and set up a shot before signing in. Generating and downloading requires an account; new accounts can claim free credits.

## Is this the official HiDream site?
