# Gemini Video Analyzer Analyze videos natively using Google Gemini's multimodal API. No frame extraction needed — Gemini processes video at 1 FPS with full motion, audio, and visual understanding. ## Quick Start ```bash # Analyze a video with default prompt (full description) GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY=$GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY python3 {baseDir}/scripts/analyze.py /path/to/video.mp4 # Ask a specific question GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY=$GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY python3 {baseDir}/scripts/analyze.py /path/to/video.mp4 "What text is visible on screen?" # Manage uploaded files GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY=$GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY python3 {baseDir}/scripts/manage_files.py list GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY=$GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY python3 {baseDir}/scripts/manage_files.py cleanup ``` ## Supported Formats MP4, AVI, MOV, MKV, WebM, FLV, MPEG, MPG, WMV, 3GP — up to 2GB per file. ## How It Works 1. Video uploads to Google's Files API (temporary, auto-deletes after 48h) 2. Gemini processes at 1 frame/sec — understands motion, transitions, audio context 3. Model generates response based on your prompt 4. Way better than frame extraction for understanding temporal content ## Use Cases | Task | Example Prompt | |------|---------------| | General description | *(default — no prompt needed)* | | UI/text extraction | `"What text and UI elements are visible?"` | | Tutorial summary | `"Summarize the steps shown in this tutorial"` | | Bug report from video | `"Describe what went wrong in this screen recording"` | | Meeting notes | `"Summarize the key points discussed"` | | Content comparison | Upload 2 videos, ask for differences | ## Configuration Set `GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY` in your environment or `.env` file. Get a free key at [aistudio.google.com](https://aistudio.google.com/apikey). Default model: `gemini-2.5-flash` (fast, cheap, excellent vision). Override with `--model gemini-2.5-pro` for complex analysis. ## API Reference See [references/gemini-files-api.md](references/gemini-files-api.md) for file upload limits, processing details, and advanced options. ## Credits Built by [M.
