Silent downgrade? Video length cut from 15s to 10s
I noticed a sudden change this week: video generations are now capped at 10 seconds, whereas they used to be 15 seconds.
Please revert this change.
Why this is critical:
Usability: 10 seconds is too short for most Reels/TikTok loops. That extra 5 seconds was the "sweet spot" that made the tool actually useful for content creation. Now the clips feel abrupt and unusable.
Value: It feels like a "silent downgrade." I am paying the same subscription price but receiving 33% less content per generation.
If this is a permanent nerf to save GPU costs, please let us know, because it significantly lowers the value of the subscription compared to competitors.
Please restore the 15s duration.
Thanks.

It’s a change by our API provider: “The xAI API charges even when the generation is identified as NSFW and fails” which gave them a massive bill. So to reduce that cost they’ve changed it to 10 seconds.
I’ve kept the video cost the same in credits mostly from 5 seconds to 10 seconds and then 15 seconds.
Once 15 seconds is back I will enable it again.
