Crazy it's still the only video understanding endpoint. It's what I use it for and no other model even offers a competitor.

You probably can't build such a model without unlimited access to YouTube and Google has been tightening the screws on that over the years pretty systematically.
to be fair, all it's doing is sampling the frames and maybe doing transcription, if I'm not mistaken. So you can do it with the other models too, you just need to sample the frames yourself and do the transcript yourself
it does this at a variable rate of frames which you can set - not sure if it is transcribing or natively understanding audio, but I think it's the latter since it is much faster than most transcription models I am aware of
Regardless you are right - I can roll my own.... but why
