How to turn an episode log into a replay video with Open ETA

Rebuild the timeline of a finished episode and export it as an MP4 for review.

  • Research
  • Intermediate
  • 30 minutes
  • From the README
  • Any agent

Who it is forA researcher reviewing a failed or uncertain rollout who needs to see what the agent observed and did, step by step.

The problemReading raw episode logs makes it hard to judge whether an action changed the world as the agent claimed.

The outcomeThe researcher gets replay.mp4 showing the reconstructed timeline of the episode.

What you need first

  • Python 3.10 or newer and uv installed
  • An OpenAI-compatible Planner LLM or VLM endpoint for any run that reasons over a task
  • One simulator backend installed through scripts/setup_envs.sh, such as libero

Steps

  1. Run uv sync --extra dev in the Open ETA repository folder.
  2. Locate the episode log folder from a previous run, such as an episode directory under outputs/.
  3. Run uv run openeta-replay EPISODE_DIR --output replay.mp4 with EPISODE_DIR replaced by that folder.

Prompt for your agent

In the OpenETA repo, run `uv run openeta-replay <episode dir> --output replay.mp4` and report the output path and whether the file was created. Verify the timeline matches the episode's recorded turns.

Caveat. The README says replay rebuilds the timeline from episode logs, so it only shows what those logs recorded and cannot add missing evidence.
