title: "Gemini Omni Flash"
description: "Gemini Omni Flash 1.2 makes video with synchronized audio at 360p to 4K, 3 to 15 seconds long, from text, a first frame (with an optional last frame), or a reference set: up to ten images bound with `<IMAGE_REF_n>` tags plus up to three clips of at most 15 seconds bound with `<VIDEO_REF_n>` tags. It is best at coherent physics, on-screen text and literal camera direction."

## Endpoint

```http
POST https://api.roasos.com/v1/video/gemini-omni-flash
```

Send your API key as a bearer token. The key needs the scope `api:write`. Every paid request also needs an `Idempotency-Key` header.

The envelope fields `quote_only`, `quote_id`, `webhook_url` and `wait_timeout_seconds` behave the same on each model endpoint. Refer to [Jobs](/concepts/jobs) and [Quotes and credits](/concepts/quotes-and-credits).

## Good at

The model is grounded in Gemini world knowledge, so plain cause-and-effect action renders coherently. Audio is always on: the model lip-syncs a script and adds sound; there is no audio switch and no audio-off discount. You cannot send an audio file: no endpoint takes a voice or a soundtrack. Reference images bind to roles with inline `<IMAGE_REF_0>`, `<IMAGE_REF_1>` tags, so one prompt can point at a person, a product and a location. Camera words are taken literally ("one continuous shot", "locked off", "push in"), and on-screen text is a strength. The `resolution` field sets the output tier and the price: 360p, 720p, 1080p or 4k, billed per output second. In image-to-video, `end_image_url` pins the last frame; with a last frame the clip is at most 10 seconds. Reference clips (`video_urls`, up to three, each at most 15 seconds) carry motion and choreography: "the dog performs the dance from `<VIDEO_REF_0>`". A lone clip with no references is a video edit instead. It is not the fidelity leader for image-to-video talking heads; use Kling 4.0 or Seedance for those. Video edit from a source video is a separate endpoint (`/v1/video-edit/gemini-omni-flash`).

## Pricing

The unit is one **clip**. Pricing key: `gemini-omni-flash`.

| Request    | Credits |
| ---------- | ------- |
| `3s_720p`  | 3       |
| `9s_720p`  | 9       |
| `15s_720p` | 15      |

The credits come from the roasOS pricing table. No other field changes the price. To get the exact price of your request, send it with `quote_only: true` first.

## Modes

* `text-to-video`
* `image-to-video`
* `reference-to-video`

roasOS selects the mode from the media fields of your request. You do not send a mode.

The schema is strict. A field that is not in this table gets `400 unsupported_option`. The field names are the roasOS role names. One role has one name in every family.

## Media

This endpoint accepts these media roles:

* `avatar_id` — identity; the saved character reference sheet, with a derived portrait only where the model requires a single face or source frame
* `references` — style and appearance references
* `image_url` — first frame (or the single source image)
* `end_image_url` — last frame
* `scene_id` — first frame — a scene this workspace owns
* `video_urls` — reference videos

| Role            | Items | Maximum size | Content types                           | Duration |
| --------------- | ----- | ------------ | --------------------------------------- | -------- |
| `end_image_url` | ≤ 1   | 10 MB        | `image/jpeg`, `image/png`, `image/webp` | —        |
| `image_url`     | ≤ 1   | 10 MB        | `image/jpeg`, `image/png`, `image/webp` | —        |
| `references`    | ≤ 10  | 10 MB        | `image/jpeg`, `image/png`, `image/webp` | —        |
| `video_urls`    | ≤ 3   | 100 MB       | `video/mp4`                             | 0–15 s   |

Every other role is refused: `elements`, `product_id`, `product_images`, `reference_images`, `scene_image`, `video_url`, `audio_urls`, `audio_url`, `voice_id`. A refused role gets `400 unsupported_option`.

  Each media URL must be an immutable object on

   that your workspace owns. Any other URL gets

## Prompt

Limit 10,000 characters including the roasOS route-facts block (`ROUTE-VERIFIED FEATURE FACTS:` with lines for the first frame, the references, the character and the outfit) and the appended `<IMAGE_REF_n>` tags. fal accepts 20,000; 10,000 is the roasOS cap.

* Describe cause-and-effect motion plainly; the model renders physics coherently.
* Place `<IMAGE_REF_0>` inline to bind a reference to a role ("the jar in \<IMAGE\_REF\_1>"); unbound references are appended.
* Camera words are literal: "one continuous shot", "locked off", "natural smartphone zoom".
* Use negative instructions to control additions: "No music, just realistic sound", "Don't add text".
* When you give dialogue or audio direction, keep it explicit; when you give none, the model still adds sound.
* Only 16:9 and 9:16, 3–15 s (10 s with a last frame): keep the action tight enough to resolve inside the clip.

## Not exposed

These catalog entries describe omitted inputs, pinned values and source constraints. They do not imply that the provider accepts every listed field.

* `duration_seconds` — these values are not available: `3`, `4`, `6`, `7`, `9`.
* `prompt` — pinned to `characters 10,001–20,000`.
* `generate_audio` — pinned to `always on; no switch and no audio-off price`.
* `seed` — not accepted by this public endpoint.
* `negative_prompt` — not accepted by this public endpoint.
* `cfg_scale` — not accepted by this public endpoint.
* `shot_type` — not accepted by this public endpoint.
* `multi_prompt` — not accepted by this public endpoint.
* `video_url` — not accepted by this public endpoint.

## Result

The result kind is `video`. Always present: `url`.

```json
{
  "data": {
    "id": "gen_…",
    "kind": "video",
    "model": "gemini-omni-flash",
    "status": "completed",
    "result": {
      "url": "https://cdn.roasos.com/workspaces/ws_01/result"
    }
  }
}
```

The files are immutable objects on `https://cdn.roasos.com`. A result URL is a valid media input for your next request.

## Example

The three steps are always the same: quote, run, poll.

## The deprecated path

`POST /v1/generations` still reaches this model for one minor version. It is deprecated. This is how it maps:

`POST /v1/generations { "type": "video", "model": "gemini-omni-flash", "options": { prompt, image, reference_images (≤ 9), duration (3–15), aspect_ratio, resolution (360p|720p|1080p|4k) } }`. `avatar_id`, `product_id` and `avatar_outfit` are app-only today.
