MP4 video files of MLB pitchers pitching to batters

Does MLB statcast have MP4 files available for download? So far I've only seen references to home run MP4 files. Thanks, Tim

    Hello - Thanks for starting a thread for this question! I've asked the team and hope to hear back soon

    Hello, I heard back from the team and other than the HR videos provided, there aren't any .mp4 files directly from MLB. You can use Stats API data to find equivalent video on Film Room (see example: https://colab.sandbox.google.com/drive/1QcZD-_VK-Fa9ZC_iNy6Cth0n67KF2dSC?usp=sharing#scrollTo=PF8OmaDKunjM), and then scrape the video files off Film Room.

    The other option would be to use public YouTube videos (of MLB games or highlights) for a similar purpose (though this might be less structured). Gemini has the ability to analyze YouTube videos directly, which would help with this - demo notebooks for this are here: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/generative-ai/blob/main/gemini/use-cases/video-analysis

    Best of luck with your project!

    Hello, thanks for your response. Does Gemini only provide text analysis of videos? Does it have objects detection and tracking capabilities like the other Google AI/ML products?
