I am not an expert in this area, but I've worked around its edges, and video has always struck me as one of tech's great HARD problems. It's a really frustrating combination of: meant for human consumption, difficult to characterize algorithmically, realtime, having a distinct future temporal envelope, etc. The problem is precisely that many people want to many different things with video - and depending on what you want to do with it you may prefer an entirely different stack! I almost want to compare it to making good vaccines in the medical world - some of the most beneficial work to all parties, but also some of the least commercially rewarding.
