Summary
AI summaryNew video analysis tool with full transcript, key frames, OCR, annotated timeline, and auto-trigger capabilities.
Full changelog
mcp-video-analyzer v0.1.0
MCP server that extracts transcripts, key frames, OCR text, and metadata from video URLs — so AI agents can fully understand video content.
Tools
analyze_video— Full analysis: transcript + key frames + OCR + annotated timeline + metadata + commentsget_frame_at— Extract a single frame at a specific timestampget_frame_burst— Extract N frames across a narrow time range (motion/animation analysis)
Supported Platforms
| Platform | Transcript | Metadata | Comments | Frames |
|----------|:----------:|:--------:|:--------:|:------:|
| Loom | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| Direct URL (.mp4, .webm) | — | Duration | — | ✅ |
Key Features
- Two-strategy frame extraction: yt-dlp + ffmpeg (primary) → headless Chrome fallback
- Frame deduplication via perceptual hashing (dHash + Hamming distance)
- OCR text extraction from frames using tesseract.js (captures code, error messages, UI text)
- Annotated timeline merging transcript + frames + OCR into a unified chronological view
- Graceful degradation — always returns partial results with warnings, never fails completely
- Zero auth required for public videos
- Auto-trigger — AI automatically calls
