Google has released Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash, an updated version of the Gemini Omni Flash model unveiled in May and opened for public API beta in late June. The standout addition is video continuation in the Omni API: while a single generation remains capped at 10 seconds, users can now extend clips repeatedly, each time adding another 10 seconds, for a maximum combined runtime of 40 seconds. When continuing, the model reviews up to 10 seconds of prior footage to keep characters, movement, and story coherent. The update also introduces first-and-last frame control, allowing users to supply a start image and an end image and have the model fill in the video in between. A cheaper 360p draft mode boosts system throughput by as much as 60% at roughly one-third the cost of 720p, according to the company; drafts can then be upscaled to 1080p or 4K, though that output is an upscale rather than native high-resolution generation.
Google has released Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash, a new build of the Gemini Omni Flash model that debuted in May and entered public API beta at the end of June. The biggest change in this update: the Omni API now supports video continuation for the first time.
Single generations are still capped at 10 seconds, but once a clip finishes, users can keep it going. Each extension adds another 10 seconds, and the chained sequence can run up to 40 seconds total. During each continuation step, the model references up to 10 seconds of prior footage, helping keep characters, movement, and storyline coherent from one segment to the next.
First-and-last frame control
Omni 1.1 also adds start-and-end frame control. Users provide one opening image and one closing image, and the model generates the video in between. For instance, if the opening frame shows a person standing in the distance and the closing frame brings them close to the camera, the model fills in the entire movement sequence on its own.
A cheaper draft tier
The new release introduces a lower-priced 360p draft mode. The company says system throughput can rise by up to 60%, at roughly one-third the cost of 720p output. Once the draft is done, the result can be upscaled to 1080p or 4K — though those are upscaled outputs, not native high-resolution generation.
