Can I get direct download links for my videos through the agent?

Yes. The `get_video_source_files` tool allows your agent to retrieve direct MP4 download links and stream URLs for different qualities (like 720p or 1080p), making it easy to share raw files or use them in other applications.

How do I add a video to a specific player?

Use the `attach_video_to_player` tool. You'll need to provide the `player_id` and the `video_id`. Your agent can help you find these IDs by listing your players and videos first.

Can I create new video players through conversation?

Absolutely. The `create_empty_player` tool lets you provision a new player container with a descriptive name. Once created, you can attach videos to it and manage its settings directly through your agent.

Common questions about integrating Vidyard MCP Server with AutoGen.

How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?

Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Vidyard tools during their conversation turns.

Can different agents have different MCP tool access?

Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
