The company did say, however, that the videos showcased via this feature will start with YouTube Shorts, which suggests that similar vertical video hosting services like TikTok and Instagram\u2019s Reels may also eventually be supported.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The short video homepage row was announced alongside other Google TV updates, including support for Google\u2019s Nano Banana generative AI image model and Veo video generator via the Gemini tab. Google Photos is also getting new Search and Remix capabilities on Google TV devices, allowing users to search for specific photos with their voice and transform them into a different style, such as a watercolor or oil painting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">These features are limited to Gemini-enabled devices in the US for now. A Dynamic Slideshow feature will be available globally though, which enables users to display any Google Photos album as the screensaver when the TV is idle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Google is making it easier to jump into watching YouTube Shorts on its TV devices without having to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":423626,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[203,1711,61,60,43,3277,216,80,23195,4621],"class_list":["post-423625","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-gadgets","tag-google","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-news","tag-streaming","tag-tech","tag-technology","tag-tvs","tag-youtube"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/423625","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=423625"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/423625\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/423626"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=423625"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=423625"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=423625"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
