Using SAM 2 for Video Segmentation via Inference Package

🤝 Community Help

I’m trying to figure out how to use SAM 2 to segment a video using an image mask through the inference.models.sam2 package. I know there’s a function called propagate_in_video available when using the SAM 2 model downloading directly from source, but I’m looking for a similar feature when running SAM 2 via the inference package. I’ve reviewed the documentation here: segment_anything2.py and here: Roboflow Inference SAM 2 guide, but I haven’t found any instructions on performing video segmentation. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Hi @Dikshant_Shah!
Unfortunately, at this time, you’re right that inference sdk doesn’t support video segmentation with SAM 2.

Apologies for the inconvenience!

No worries at all. But does Roboflow workflows support video input for SAM 2 blocks?

Hi @Dikshant_Shah!
Unfortunately not at this moment. I cannot provide a timeline, but this is on the team’s radar.

Hi @Dikshant_Shah ,

Please keep an eye on inference-exp, we are currently working to add SAM2 support with video into it. Bare in mind this work is in experimental stage, so anything may change.

Thanks!
