"""
Frame sampling helpers for the scene pipeline.
For each scene window we want a small set of *representative* frames — enough
for the VLM to read the action, few enough to keep token cost low. The
strategy:
1. Sample N evenly-spaced timestamps inside the window.
2. Extract them with ffmpeg as JPEGs at a reasonable resolution.
3. Drop near-duplicates using a perceptual hash so a static talking head
doesn't waste 6 frame slots on essentially the same picture.
Each frame is also written to disk under the run's output directory so the
benchmark report can show what the VLM actually saw.
