The actual token calculations with input videos for Gemini 3 Pro is...confusing. https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/media-resolution https://ai.google.dev/g

  That is because it isn't actually tokens that are fed into the model for non-text. For text, it is tokenized, and each token has a specific set of vectors. But with other media, they've trained encoders that analyze the media and produce a set of vectors that are the same "format" as the token's vectors, but it isn't actually ever a token. Most companies have rules for how many tokens the media should "cost", but they aren't usually exact.
