Extend Video Guide

The Extend Video (EXT) tab lets you seamlessly lengthen or continue an existing clip using AI.


1. Mode Selector

At the top, choose your generation mode:

  • T2V (Text → Video)

  • I2V (Image → Video)

  • SR (Subject Reference)

  • EXT (Extend Video)

  • F-L (First Frame → Last Frame)

Tip: Select EXT to build onto your reference video.


2. Add Reference Video

  1. Click Select or Upload Video (or drag-and-drop).

  2. Upload your base clip—the AI will use its last frame as the starting point for extension.


3. Settings Panel

Keep defaults for a smooth experience or fine-tune:

4. Prompt Box

Describe how the new segment should play out:

  1. Type your extension direction (e.g. “Continue panning right to reveal a sunset”).

  2. Optimized Tag appears if prompt optimization is active.

  3. Credit Counter shows the cost for extending your clip.

  4. Send (↑) Button starts the extension process.

  5. Clear (🗑️) Icon resets the instructions.


5. Monitoring Your Job

After sending, view your extension in the Generation Feed:

  • Progress Bar & Percentage

  • Mode Tag & Model Name

  • Timestamp

Hover for a quick preview or click to open full-screen.


6. Post-Processing Controls

Hover over your finished extension to access:

  • Add to Library: Save to Assets

  • Download: Export to your device

  • Upscale: Increase resolution (2K → 4K) using credits

  • Smooth Motion: Apply frame interpolation for fluid playback

  • Delete: Remove the generation (with confirmation)


With Extend Video, you can grow your story beyond the initial clip—just upload your video, describe the continuation, and watch AI do the rest!
