    Correct answer Hajar Toutsi

    Hi T_R_S,

    Thanks for reaching out about this.
     

    For the Generate Video feature, the Firefly Video model currently has a fixed duration of 5 seconds. Some of our partner models offer longer options, including durations up to 12 seconds with Sora 2.

    You can find a full breakdown of each partner model’s duration options in this article.

    If you prefer to work only with the Firefly Video model, one workaround is to create a series of 5‑second clips and stitch them together afterward. You can start by generating the first clip, then upload it as a reference in the Composition section. This helps keep the layout and visual style consistent when generating the next segment.


    Hope this helps.

    Try different partner models. You’ll get not only different results but different options for time among other things.
