Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash lets you build with more control

Google has updated its Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash video model to process up to ten seconds of existing footage, allowing for more consistent scene generation compared to the previous one-second limit. Users can now extend videos in ten-second intervals up to a total length of 40 seconds. Additionally, a new 360p draft mode increases processing speeds by 60 percent while reducing computational costs. These improvements provide developers with greater control over video continuity and efficiency when building AI-powered visual applications.
