The Bing Video Creator currently supports only vertical 9:16 aspect ratio videos, with plans to introduce horizontal uploads soon. Users can queue up to three five-second video generations at a time, with no option to change the video length. The feature is likely aimed at encouraging users to share their creations on platforms like TikTok and Instagram.
