Still image or short clip? Deciding feature placement from the cost gap between Nano Banana 2 Lite and Omni Flash

When I froze over whether a wallpaper app's hero asset should be a still image or a short moving loop, the deciding factor was not taste but the order of magnitude of the cost. Here is how to normalize Nano Banana 2 Lite and Omni Flash onto the same footing, down to a working decision function.

How Well Does Omni Flash Hear 'Rotate the Camera 30 Degrees Right'? Measuring Where Conversational Edits Land

Public-preview Gemini Omni Flash lets you re-edit a generated video in plain language. 'Make the lighting evening' lands; 'rotate the camera 30 degrees' often misses. Here is a running log of where instructions land, sorted mechanically by comparing before/after frames.

Collapsing Video Understanding into One Native Call with Omni Flash

How I replaced an ffmpeg frame-extraction pipeline (7-9 calls per clip) with a single native Omni Flash call, the measured differences, and the boundaries where keeping frame sampling still wins.
