Retrieve full user model from author of a video

[nTraum]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to figure out how to fetch profile information from the uploader of a video.

Assuming I'm fetching the video info with Client#video_by 'foo', I have an instance of Video with only limited author information (Video#author). Is there any way to directly access the User model of the uploader?

I couldn't find an attribute for the username (which I could use to query the user info with Client#profile 'bar') either. Maybe I'm missing the point.

tl;dr: Want to fetch profile information from the uploader of a specified video.

Thanks in advance.
