Announced August 27: scene extension in 10-second increments to a cumulative 40 seconds with the model reading 10 seconds of prior context, up from referencing only the final second in earlier Omni releases, plus first-and-last-frame interpolation and 1080p/4K upscaling (Google). The 360p draft mode renders up to 60% faster at about a third the cost of 720p, giving video pipelines the cheap-draft/expensive-final split that image pipelines have had for years.
