    Frequently asked questions

    • Seedream 5.0 Pro can, in Layer Studio on desktop. Give it one image and get the base plus up to 16 transparent PNG layers in the original frame. The model decides how many.

    • 1.5K counts pixels, not width. Every 1.5K frame holds about as many pixels as a 1536 square, so 16:9 comes out at 2048 x 1152.

    • No, none of the four do. Write the result you want, for example "plain matte grey backdrop", instead of a list of things to avoid.

    • Attach them to the model card in Media Studio and say what each one contributes, for example "the bottle from image 1, the marble from image 2".

    • Yes. The model ids from Media Studio work in the API and the MCP server, and every run draws on the same balance.
