## About

### What it is

VideoLLaMA2 is a Gradio chat app for media understanding, meaning you give it something like a video and ask about it. It names two VideoLLaMA2 models, the 7B build and the 2.1 7B 16F build, along with two supporting models. The Space runs on Hugging Face, so you can try it in a browser with nothing to install.

### Who it suits

Researchers and developers who want to try a video-language model, and anyone who wants a written answer about what a clip shows.

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Media | Video editors | Get a written account of what a clip shows | Load a clip and ask what happens in it |
| Research | Multimodal researchers | Try a video-language model on their own clips | Compare answers from the two named builds |
| Education | Teachers | Ask questions about a recorded lesson clip | Ask what a clip teaches |
| Software | Developers | Study how a video chat demo is wired | Read app.py and the VideoLLaMA2 folder |

Anyone who needs a ready business tool with a fixed workflow can skip it.

### Where to use it

It runs in these places.

- A web browser, on the Space's page at Hugging Face
- Windows, with Python
- macOS, with Python
- Linux, with Python

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Ask about a clip | Anyone | A written answer about the media |
| Try the sample inputs | Newcomers | A quick demo from the examples folder |
| Study the code | Developers | A local copy with the model code to read |

### How to set it up

Using the Space online needs only a browser. A copy on your own computer needs the following.

- Python and pip
- The huggingface\_hub package, which gives you the hf command
- Disk space for the repository, which holds 87 files

1. Install the huggingface\_hub package.
2. Download the Space's files into a local folder.
3. Move into that folder.
4. Install Gradio at the version the Space uses, then install the packages in requirements.txt.
5. Start the app.

```sh
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download lixin4ever/VideoLLaMA2 --repo-type space --local-dir VideoLLaMA2
cd VideoLLaMA2
pip install gradio==5.49.1
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py
```

### How to use it

Open the Space's page, or run the app on your computer and open the page Gradio shows. Give it a video or other media, type a question, and read the answer. The README is mostly template text, so the source does not describe the screens.

```sh
python app.py
```

| Tool | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| app.py | The main file, it builds the Gradio page |
| VideoLLaMA2 folder | Holds the model code in the repository |
| examples folder | Holds sample inputs to try |
| requirements.txt | Lists the Python packages the app needs |

### Example

You open the Space, load a short video clip and type a question about what happens in it. The model replies with a written answer about the clip.

### For newcomers and experts

A video-language model reads a video and answers questions in text. The first small thing to try is the online Space with one of the sample inputs.

The Space names four models, VideoLLaMA2-7B, VideoLLaMA2.1-7B-16F, opt-350m and vicuna-7b-v1.5. The hosted copy is set to run on Hugging Face hardware called zero-a10g. This page rests on file names and model names, because the README carries only a short tagline and template text.

You give the app a video or other media → You type a question → A VideoLLaMA2 model reads the media → The app replies with text

### Good to know

The Space states no usage limits, so treat it as a demo you can read and adapt.

- License: apache-2
- Cost to run: none named
- Data it reaches: the media you load, plus the Space files and model files that Hugging Face supplies
- Hardware: the Space is set to zero-a10g at Hugging Face, and what your own computer needs is not stated
