🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Make the FPS-cap test distinguish the FPS cap.

This test passes if the clamp on Line 812 is removed because _MAX_FRAMES still limits the result to 640. Use a source where 30 FPS produces fewer than 640 frames, such as a 10-second, 100-FPS source, and assert the expected 300 sampled indices. The uncapped 500,000-FPS path would then produce 640 indices.

In `@tests/multimodal/test_video.py` around lines 1510 - 1517, Update
test_class_cap_overrides_target_fps to use a 10-second source at 100 FPS and
assert exactly 300 sampled indices, so the test distinguishes the FPS cap from
the _MAX_FRAMES limit while retaining the high target FPS.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Bound the intermediate index list.

Line 819 limits extract_t, but the loop still appends samples until near the end of the source video. A long 30 FPS video can therefore allocate hundreds of thousands of indices before the later resampling returns at most 640 indices.

Generate the final bounded index set directly when the natural sample count exceeds extract_t. Preserve the current temporal span when doing this. Update test_extreme_values_bounded_by_total_frames because its final-length assertion also passes with the old large intermediate allocation.

In `@vllm/multimodal/video.py` at line 819, Update the video sampling logic around
extract_t so the intermediate index list is bounded to the final maximum sample
count, rather than appending all source-frame samples before resampling. When
the natural sample count exceeds extract_t, generate the bounded indices
directly while preserving the current temporal span; retain existing behavior
otherwise, and revise test_extreme_values_bounded_by_total_frames to verify the
intermediate allocation rather than only its final length.
