    Hi Mindeez,

    Thanks for reaching out!

    Just a quick note on how VEO 3.1 works: if you are using a reference image and have the duration set to 8 seconds, the system requires a 16:9 (Landscape) aspect ratio. It won't allow a 9:16 (Vertical) video to generate with those specific settings.

    To get it working, you'll just need to adjust your settings to match. However, if your setup is different and you're still running into this issue, please share that screenshot along with the exact settings you've selected.
    We'll be happy to take a closer look!
