How do I start a video upload?

Use the `create_video_upload` tool, which will create the asset in your specified collection and provide a temporary `upload_url` for your file.

Can I update the thumbnail for a video already uploaded?

Yes! The `update_video_thumbnail` tool allows you to specify a time offset in seconds. Gumlet will extract that specific frame and set it as the new thumbnail.

Does it support viewing stats and bandwidth usage?

The `get_video_analytics` tool provides detailed viewing metrics and bandwidth consumption data for any video ID in your account.
