usecase: youtube video comprehension #2503

Bipul70701 · 2025-05-28T14:43:32Z

It allows users to extract, understand, and query the contents of YouTube videos. It leverages CAMEL toolkits and OpenAI models for transcription, summarization, and natural language Q&A.

let's use lower cases for the file names

Lower case for the directory names as well

Sorry for that, Done

Thanks @Bipul70701!! That is awesome!

hesamsheikh

Thanks for the great usecase @Bipul70701, it's pretty helpful! I added some comments.

+chunkr_ai
+python-dotenv
+streamlit
+camel-ai["all"]
+docx2markdown


chunkr_ai and docx2markdown are not used in the code. are they necessary?
Also ffmpeg-python is used in the code but not listed here.

Hii @hesamsheikh

Just a quick note—ffmpeg-python gets installed automatically when I install camel-ai[all], so there's no need to list it separately.

However, I was getting ModuleNotFoundError for both chunkr_ai and docx2markdown, so I’ve explicitly added them to the requirements.txt file to ensure everything works smoothly.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Let's also add the CAMEL copyright header (like the other usecases)

thanks @Bipul70701 ,i used to do similar project before, how about add a image ocr of the video images? Because when the video involves many tutorial PPTS include a lot text etc, adding the ocr text part will make the entire video better understood

@Bipul70701 I tried running the usecase but when I paste in a URL I get this error when downloading the video.

Hii @hesamsheikh I tried running it again it's working fine for me. It's something to do with the yt-dlp in video_download_toolkit. Even in my other project I was facing this same issue that code was running fine in my system but when I deployed it on streamlit it was giving me the same error.

Bipul70701 · 2025-05-30T12:51:17Z

@zjrwtx Thanks for the suggestion — that's a solid use case. I'll start working on it and aim to open a PR shortly.

Wendong-Fan

thanks @Bipul70701 ! Left some comments below, also as you have been invited as camel repo member, you could create new branch in camel's repo directly then create PR, which would be more convenient for code review

these 2 libraries already been included in camel-ai[all]

examples/usecases/youtube_video_comprehension/readme.md

better naming the file README.md

Wendong-Fan

thanks @Bipul70701 , when run the demo below error could happen:

RuntimeError: Failed to download video from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ_7GtE529M:
[0;31mERROR:[0m [youtube] kQ_7GtE529M: Sign in to confirm you’re not a bot. Use 
--cookies-from-browser or --cookies for the authentication. See  
https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/FAQ#how-do-i-pass-cookies-to-yt-dlp  for how to 
manually pass cookies. Also see  
https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/Extractors#exporting-youtube-cookies  for tips on 
effectively exporting YouTube cookies

I think we need to set the cookie path like VideoAnalysisToolkit(cookie_path="cookies.txt"), better give one default video path and also add cookie file to the use case folder to make sure the user would be able to run the demo

Bipul70701 · 2025-06-02T17:22:53Z

Hii @Wendong-Fan I have added the required steps in readme.md file

hesamsheikh

Thanks for the recent changes! There was this slight issue in the new changes. Also, just as an opinion do you think "chat with youtube" would be a better title for this usecase and its folder?

hesamsheikh · 2025-06-03T13:32:07Z

examples/usecases/youtube_video_comprehension/README.md

+
+   - Navigate to [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com) and log in.
+   - Click the extension icon and export the cookies.
+   - Save the file as `cookies.txt` in the `examples/usecases/youtube_q&a` directory.


the name of the folder is the old name.

@hesamsheikh Done I have changed the name of the folder and changed the readme file accordingly

Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
- I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
- Explain this complex logic.
- Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
