Gotchas
- Veo 3 and 3.1 generate native audio — use
generate_audio: falseto suppress - The 1080p endpoint (
/veo/videos/1080p) only upscales previously generated videos enhance_promptcan significantly improve results but may deviate from literal interpretation- Veo 2 does NOT support audio generation
- Duration is capped at 8 seconds for all models
- Task states use
"succeeded"(not "completed") — check for this value when polling
