Google makes Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash generally available with scene extension and 4K output
- Google made Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash generally available via the Gemini API and AI Studio, replacing the preview endpoint that Google plans to deprecate on 30 September 2026.
- The model generates and edits video from text, images, and video, with output resolutions of 360p, 720p, 1080p, and 4K; 1080p and 4K use upscaling.
- Scene extension analyzes up to 10 seconds of prior video and extends clips in 10-second increments to a cumulative 40 seconds.
- A first-and-last-frame interpolation mode lets developers specify the opening and closing frames to control transitions and camera movement.
- Google says 360p drafts can generate up to 60 percent faster and cost one third of standard 720p generation, though the article notes these are vendor-reported claims.
