Notes
- On the 2.0 family an audio reference must arrive alongside an image or video reference; it cannot travel alone. Seedance 2.5 accepts audio by itself.
- Every model also accepts auto duration, where it picks the optimal length within its range.
Capabilities as published for the Seedance model family. Where a feature is not yet exposed in the Cat Claw studio, the model itself still supports it.
