Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.
What each says it does
claude-video-vision
A perception layer that gives Claude Code the ability to watch and understand videos. Extracts frames via ffmpeg and processes audio through multiple configurable backends (Gemini API, local Whisper, or OpenAI Whisper API). Claude receives the frames as images plus an audio transcription with timestamps and reasons about them together. Includes an interactive setup wizard, adaptive extraction (fps, resolution, and time ranges automatically adjust to the user's question), and auto-download of Whisper models. 100% free and open source.
