MoviePy – Getting End Time of Video File Clip

In this article we will see how we can get the end time of the video file clip in MoviePy. MoviePy is a Python module for video editing, which can be used for basic operations on videos and GIF’s. When the clip is included in a composition, end time is time of the composition at which the clip stops playing (in seconds).

In order to do this we will use end attribute with the VideoFileClip object

Syntax : clip.end

Argument : It takes no argument

Return : It returns integer

Below is the implementation

# Import everything needed to edit video clips
from moviepy.editor import *

# loading video dsa gfg intro video
clip = VideoFileClip("dsa_geek.mp4")

# getting only first 5 seconds
clip = clip.subclip(0, 5)

# getting end time of the clip
value = clip.end

# printing start time
print("End Time : ", end =" ")
print(value)

# showing  clip
clip.ipython_display(width = 360)

Output :

End Time :  5
Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4

                                                                                                                       
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4

Another example

# Import everything needed to edit video clips
from moviepy.editor import *

# loading video gfg
clip = VideoFileClip("geeks.mp4")

# getting only first 5 seconds
clip = clip.subclip(0, 5)

# getting end time of the clip
value = clip.end

# printing start time
print("End Time : ", end =" ")
print(value)

# showing  clip
clip.ipython_display(width = 360)

Output :

End Time :  5
Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4

                                                                                                                       
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4
