Starting on September 14, 2026, Video Intelligence API is officially deprecated and will no longer be supported. You can continue using Video Intelligence API until September 14, 2027, when it will be shut down. We recommend migrating to Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform or Cloud Vision API.
Shot change detection
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
By default, the Video Intelligence API examines a video, or video segments, by frame.
That is, each complete picture in the series that forms the video is examined.
You can also have Video Intelligence annotate a video, or video segment,
according to each shot that it detects in the input video.
Shot change detection annotates a video with video segments that are generated
when detecting abrupt shot changes in the video. In the output annotation, the
beginning frame of each video segment indicates an abrupt shot change (i.e.,
the frames before and after that frame are visually different).
To detect shot changes in a video, call the
annotate
method and specify
SHOT_CHANGE_DETECTION
in the features field.
