In this article we will see how we can iterate frames 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. A video is basically combination of lots of frame for each time there is a specific frame, in order to get the frame at given time we use get_frame method. Iterating frames means to traversing the frame a frame is represented in the form of numpy ndarray.
In order to do this we will use
iter_framesmethod with the VideoFileClip objectSyntax : clip.iter_frames()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns Clip.iter_frames
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) # iterating frames frames = clip.iter_frames() # counter to count the frames counter = 0 # using loop to tranverse the frames for value in frames: # incrementing the counter counter += 1 # printing the value of the counter print("Counter Value ", end = " : ") print(counter) # showing clip clip.ipython_display(width = 360) |
Output :
Counter Value : 150
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) # iterating frames frames = clip.iter_frames() # counter to count the frames counter = 0 # using loop to tranverse the frames for value in frames: # incrementing the counter counter += 1 # printing the value of the counter print("Counter Value ", end = " : ") print(counter) # showing clip clip.ipython_display(width = 360) |
Output :
Counter Value : 300
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
