arXiv:2608. 12290v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern black-box Image-to-Video (I2V) models offer powerful capabilities in automated content creation, yet their lack of fine-grained control and reliability presents significant challenges in professional workflows.

Long-form video understanding requires locating sparse, question-relevant evidence in long, multimodal videos. Real-world video distributions differ in modality-specific information density, content structure, and evidence patterns, causing fixed video-agent designs to incur redundant processing or fail when mismatched.
