Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash Adds Scene Extension and 4K
Google published an update to its Omni video model for developers, called Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash. Google says the update makes Omni 1.1 production-ready for professional use through the Gemini API in Google AI Studio.
Transcript
Google says Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash is available today, adding creative controls to its video model.
Google says scene extension now analyzes up to 10 seconds of prior context instead of one second, extending videos to 40 seconds.
You can also set a shot's first and last frames. The model generates video between them for camera orbits or looping clips.
Google says three sixty p drafts generate up to 60 percent faster and cost a third of seven twenty p. Output upscales to four K.
Note that 60 percent is Google's own throughput figure. This is an update to Omni, not a new model, and the post lists no pricing.
