MoviePy – Loading Audio File from Video

In this article we will see how we can load audio file from 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. Video is formed by the frames, combination of frames creates a video each frame is an individual image. An audio file format is a file format for storing digital audio data on a computer system. The bit layout of the audio data is called the audio coding format and can be uncompressed, or compressed to reduce the file size, often using lossy compression.

In order to do this we will use AudioFileClip method
Syntax : AudioFileClip(“some_video.avi”)
Argument : It takes video file name as argument
Return : It returns AudioFileClip object 

Below is the implementation 

Python3

# importing editor from movie py
from moviepy.editor import *

# loading audio file from the video
audioclip = AudioFileClip("geeks.mp4")

# printing audio clip
print(audioclip)

Output :

moviepy.audio.io.AudioFileClip.AudioFileClip object at 0x0000028BA2050F08

Another example 

Python3

# importing editor from movie py
from moviepy.editor import *

# loading audio file
audioclip = AudioFileClip("dsa_geek.mp4")

# printing audio clip
print(audioclip)

Output :

moviepy.audio.io.AudioFileClip.AudioFileClip object at 0x0000028BA203B1C8
