Beyond Visual Boundaries: Rethinking Scene Segmentation for Movie RAG

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 27, 2026 · UTC

Understanding long-form video remains a fundamental challenge for multimodal large language models (MLLMs). Sparse frame sampling fails to capture fine-grained visual details, while dense sampling quickly exceeds context length limits. Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) offers a promising middle ground by selectively retrieving relevant video segments for grounded generation, yet its effectiveness critically depends on the quality of the video segments used as retrieval units. In this paper, we investigate RAG for movie understanding, which demands story-level reasoning over characters, even
