}Retrieve complete metadata for a specific video including duration, transcript status, thumbnail, and stream URLs.

# Get video from collection
video = coll.get_videos()[0]
print(f"Video ID: {video.id}")

console.log(`Video ID: ${video.id}`);
console.log(`Name: ${video.name}`);
console.log(`Duration: ${video.length} seconds`);
console.log(`Stream URL: ${video.streamUrl}`);
- Video IDs start with the prefix
v- - Each video maintains its own stream URL for playback
- Video metadata includes length in seconds, name, description, and thumbnail URL
- Videos belong to a collection and inherit collection-level access controls
