Last Updated :
13 Jul, 2022
In this article we will see how we can show a 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. A subclip is a section of a master (source) clip that you want to edit and manage separately in your project. You can use subclips to organize long media files. You work with subclips in a Timeline panel as you do with master clips. Trimming and editing a subclip is constrained by its start and end points. Clipping helps in overcome the memory error occur while showing large video at a single time.
In order to do this we will use subclip method with the VideoFileClip object
Syntax : clip.subclip(i, j)
Argument : It takes two integer argument which are starting and ending value in seconds
Return : It returns VideoFileClip object
Below is the implementation
Python3
from moviepy.editor import *
clip = VideoFileClip("dsa_geek.webm")
clip = clip.subclip( 55 , 65 )
clip.ipython_display(width = 480 )
|
Output :
Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4
Another example
Python3
from moviepy.editor import *
clip = VideoFileClip("geeks.mp4")
clip = clip.subclip( 0 , 7 )
clip.ipython_display()
|
Output :
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__.mp
