10/05/2025, 2:15 AMGPT4Turbo supports video input. However, when I try it, I get an error saying video input is only supported through OpenAI’s Realtime API.
I’ve also tried gemini-2.5-flash, which technically works, but the OCR/text extraction isn’t very reliable, for example, it often reads “6” as “8” or drops smaller UI text.
So I’m wondering:
- Is there currently an OpenAI model supported in BAML that can handle video input directly?
- Or should I be extracting frames from the video and treating them as individual images?
- And, if frame extraction is the recommended path, are there any best practices for reducing frame rate or feeding many frames into a BAML pipeline efficiently?
