Adobe Firefly Boards adds Gemini Omni Flash for video restoration tests

• Gemini Omni Flash is now visible inside Firefly Boards' model picker, where icreatelife's screenshot shows it alongside Sora 2, Runway Gen-4.5 Video, Runway Aleph 2.0, Ray 3.14, and Firefly Video.
• Early creator tests treated it like a video restoration and restyling model, with GlennHasABeard using a no-reference "Restore the attached video" prompt on a game clip.
• Boards is the important surface because icreatelife's demo starts from a hand-drawing video and turns it into a generated visual board, not a single isolated render.
• The rollout looked staggered outside Boards: icreatelife said it was already available in Firefly Boards everywhere while mobile was still rolling out globally.

The model picker is the artifact: icreatelife's screenshot places Gemini Omni Flash in the same dropdown as Sora 2, Runway Gen-4.5 Video, Runway Aleph 2.0, Ray 3.14, and Firefly Video. The prompt that spread fastest reads like a cursed cleanup job, "Restore the attached video," in GlennHasABeard's test, then AllaAisling turned the bracketed adjective into a style dial in one variant, another, and a third.

icreatelife said Gemini Omni Flash launched in Adobe Firefly and called Firefly Boards the best place to use it in the launch demo and the follow-up screenshot. Adobe's public Firefly surface is the Firefly web app, but the creator evidence here is specifically Boards.

The visible dropdown inventory:

• Firefly Video
• Ray 3.14
• Runway Aleph 2.0
• Runway Gen-4.5 Video
• Sora 2
• Gemini Omni Flash
• More models

The same screenshot shows Widescreen selected and a "Uses 240 credits" indicator in the Boards control bar. That is the one hard usage number in the evidence.

The strongest workflow example starts with a video of a hand drawing, then turns that clip into a generated board of related visual assets in icreatelife's demo. In replies, icreatelife said the model was especially cool on personal video, including the drawing clip in one reply.

The same thread points to three creator inputs that matter more than prompt polish:

• A drawing video, shown in the main demo.
• Everyday phone video, called out by icreatelife's reply.
• Full drawn animation, which icreatelife said could be created from the approach.

GlennHasABeard restyled one of icreatelife's prompts for Gemini Omni Flash in Firefly Boards and used no reference file beyond the attached video in the test post. The prompt is short enough to steal the whole shape:

That wording asks for output only, with no explanation. For video creators, the neat bit is the framing: treat a weird clip as damaged footage, then let the model decide what "restored" means.

AllaAisling copied the same restoration structure and changed the adjective inside brackets in her first test. The remixes kept the instruction scaffold intact:

• "extremely [strange]" in AllaAisling's setup.
• "extremely [useless]" in the useless variant.
• "extremely [sci-fi]" in the sci-fi variant.
• "extremely [adorable]" in the adorable variant.

That is the most reusable trick in the thread: one stable restoration prompt, one swapped descriptor.

Availability was clearest in one reply. icreatelife said Gemini Omni Flash was already available in Firefly Boards everywhere, while mobile was rolling out and should be fully available globally at 9 am PT in the rollout note.

Access may still depend on plan state. When one person appeared to have trouble, icreatelife tagged AdobeCare and asked what subscription they had in the support reply.

The restoration tests were tied to a real side project, not just a random sample clip. GlennHasABeard was also updating a Hidden Objects web game the same day, and his update listed the mobile and desktop fixes behind the clip.

The game update included:

• Fullscreen fixed on mobile, with the image filling the screen in any orientation.
• A landscape redesign with edge-to-edge art and tucked-away controls.
• A PC bug fix for removing stray marks.
• New undo and clear buttons.

The attached interface screenshot in the same post describes 154 scenes and an original soundtrack. That makes the Omni Flash test more useful than a one-off demo: it shows a creator feeding footage from an active interactive project back into a video model.
