paths

Filesystem helpers shared by eval scripts.

Provides the prompt-sanitization, default filename convention, and (row, video_path) → eval-kwargs builder. Free functions, not a class — :class:fastvideo.eval.Evaluator is the only stateful object in the eval surface; loops live in user scripts.

Functions

fastvideo.eval.io.paths.build_eval_kwargs 

build_eval_kwargs(row: dict, video_path: Path, *, fps: float = 24.0) -> dict[str, Any]

Build evaluator kwargs from a sample row + a video on disk.

Loads the video as (T,C,H,W) and adds the leading batch dim. Forwards prompt (as scalar text_prompt) and auxiliary_info (as scalar dict) when present on the row — matches the one-sample-per-call contract that the evaluator and every metric assume.
