用合成视频测试模型跨视频推理能力，发现当前模型远不如人类。

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have made rapid progress in single-video understanding, yet their ability to reason across multiple independent video streams remains poorly understood. Existing multi-video benchmarks rely largely on human-annotated real-world footage, limiting the precision of spatial, temporal, and physical ground truth and making it difficult to diagnose model failures. We introduce SYNCR, a controlled synthetic benchmark for cross-video reasoning with programmatically verified grounding. Built using Habitat, Kubric, and CLEVRER simulator engines, SYNCR contains 8,163 multi-video question-answer pairs grounded in 9,650 unique videos. It evaluates MLLMs across eight tasks spanning four diagnostic pillars: Temporal Alignment, Spatial Tracking, Comparative Reasoning, and Holistic Synthesis. Our zero-shot evaluation of leading open- and closed-weight MLLMs reveals a substantial gap between current models and humans: the best model achieves only 52.5% average accuracy, compared to an 89.5% human baseline. Models perform relatively well on temporal ordering but struggle with precise physical and spatial reasoning, with the best model reaching only 26.0% accuracy on Kinematic Comparison. We further find that parameter scaling and reasoning-specialized post-training improve temporal alignment capabilities, but do not reliably address fine-grained physical tracking or global spatial synthesis. Finally, an exploratory sim-to-real correlation analysis suggests that several SYNCR tasks track model-level trends on real-world multi-video benchmarks, while also exposing reasoning capabilities underrepresented by existing evaluations.
