Question and answer

Question: What is the frame rate of this video, and how big is it?
Answer: The file plays at 24 frames per second.

Check passedanswer 24.0, expected 24.0 ±0.05

How it was checked

Truth from: constructed
Fixed at: 2026-10-30 19:42

Planted by this recipe: ffmpeg re-encoded the source at 24 frames per second and 480 px wide (the choice is seeded from the card id). The truth is that setting; the tolerance 0.05 allows for rounding in the probe.

The source was re-encoded by a script at 24 frames per second and 480 px wide, so the answer is the setting the script chose, not a real-world camera fact.

Try it yourself

Use agentic-video to probe my video. Tell me its frame rate, width and height, then make a contact sheet of it. Use my own file.

Get the .mcpb file and open it in Claude Desktop.
Or: pip install agentic-video
