MoviePy – Checking if Video File Clip is playing at given time
In this article we will see how we can check if the video file clip in MoviePy will playing at given time or not. MoviePy is a Python module for video editing, which can be used for basic operations on videos and GIF’s. It means that if the video get played and time t will the video be still playing or it will get terminated.
In order to do this we will use is_playing
method with the VideoFileClip object
Syntax : clip.is_playing(t)
Argument : It takes float value as argument
Return : It returns bool
Below is the implementation
from moviepy.editor import *
clip = VideoFileClip( "dsa_geek.mp4" )
clip = clip.subclip( 0 , 5 )
value = clip.is_playing( 2 )
print ( "Clip will be playing at time = 2 " , end = " : " )
print (value)
clip.ipython_display(width = 360 )
|
Output :
Clip will be playing at time = 2 : True
Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4
Another example
from moviepy.editor import *
clip = VideoFileClip( "geeks.mp4" )
clip = clip.subclip( 0 , 5 )
value = clip.is_playing( 8 )
print ( "Clip will be playing at time = 8 " , end = " : " )
print (value)
clip.ipython_display(width = 360 )
|
Output :
Clip will be playing at time = 8 : False
Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
MoviePy - Writing audio in __temp__TEMP_MPY_wvf_snd.mp3
MoviePy - Done.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4
