In this article we will see how we can play the video file clip in loop i.e n times 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. We can display a video with the help of ipython_display
method and we can preview a video with the help of preview
method. But when we display a video there is no looping although we can add looping to it any time i.e when we display the video file it will start playing replaying itself n times.
In order to do this we will use ipython_display
method with the VideoFileClip object
Syntax : clip.clip.ipython_display(loop = n)
Argument : It takes loop = integer as argument
Return : It returns None
Below is the implementation
from moviepy.editor import *
clip = VideoFileClip( "dsa_geek.webm" )
clip = clip.subclip( 0 , 5 )
clip.ipython_display(loop = 3 )
|
Output :
Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4
This video will get played 3 times in continuous loop
Another example
from moviepy.editor import *
clip = VideoFileClip( "geeks.mp4" )
clip = clip.subclip( 0 , 5 )
clip.ipython_display(loop = 3 )
|
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__.mp4
This video will get played 3 times in continuous loop
