MoviePy – Setting End Time of the Clip
In this article we will see how we can set 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. We can change the duration of the clip with the help of set_duration
method. Although by changing the end time of the clip we can increase or decrease the duration as well.
In order to do this we will use set_end
method with the VideoFileClip object
Syntax : clip.set_end(n)
Argument : It takes float value as argument
Return : It returns VideoFileClip object
Below is the implementation
from moviepy.editor import *
clip = VideoFileClip( "dsa_geek.mp4" )
clip = clip.subclip( 0 , 5 )
new_clip = clip.set_end( 3 )
new_clip.ipython_display(width = 360 )
|
Output :
Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4
Another example
from moviepy.editor import *
clip = VideoFileClip( "geeks.mp4" )
clip = clip.subclip( 0 , 2 )
new_clip = clip.set_end( 3 )
new_clip.ipython_display(width = 360 )
|
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
