Video generation

Generating video with Aimogen Pro using OpenAI Sora and Stable Diffusion video, the available parameters, and the cost implications.

Aimogen Pro generates video through two routes.

OpenAI Sora#

Settings › AI Videos

ModelNote
sora-2The plugin default
sora-2-proHigher quality

Resolution and duration options are defined per model in the plugin. Requires an OpenAI key.

Videos are stored as aiomatic_video posts, and generation is asynchronous — the plugin polls for completion through the aiomatic_check_video_status AJAX action.

Stable Diffusion video#

Generates video from a source image rather than from text. Requires a Stability.AI key.

SettingWhat it does
Video Motion Bucket IDLower values give less motion, higher values more. Corresponds to the motion_bucket_id parameter from the underlying paper
Video CFG ScaleHow strictly the result follows the guidance

Available as the stable_ai_video OmniBlock and as the god_mode_enable_stable_video chatbot extension.

Cost#

Practical guidance#

Keep clips short. Cost and generation time both scale with duration, and current models are strongest over a few seconds.

Describe motion, not just the scene. A video prompt that reads like an image prompt produces a near-still clip. Say what moves and how.

Expect to regenerate. Video generation is less predictable than image generation. Budget for several attempts.

Check for artefacts before publishing. Hands, faces, text and rapid motion are where current models fail most visibly.

Limitations#

  • No audio. Generated video is silent. Add audio separately — see Audio, speech and transcription.
  • Short durations. Seconds, not minutes.
  • Asynchronous. Generation takes time; the plugin polls for the result.
  • No editing. There is no video editing equivalent to the image editing features.

Common problems#

Generation times out. It is asynchronous by design — the plugin polls. If the poll never completes, check System & Logs › Activity Logs for the provider error.

The video never appears. Check the aiomatic_video post type in the admin for its status.

Cost is far higher than expected. See the warning above.
