In this article we will see how we can enable mouse input handeling the MediaPlayer object in the python vlc module. VLC media player is a free and open-source portable cross-platform media player software and streaming media server developed by the VideoLAN project. MediPlyer object is the basic object in vlc module for playing the video. By input handelling one can create event handler and can take mouse input to do actions.
In order to do this we will use
video_set_mouse_inputmethod with the MediaPlayer objectSyntax : media_player.video_set_mouse_input(True)
Argument : It takes bool as argument
Return : It returns None
Below is the implementation
# importing vlc module import vlc # importing time module import time # creating vlc media player object media_player = vlc.MediaPlayer() # media object media = vlc.Media("death_note.mkv") # setting media to the media player media_player.set_media(media) # making mouse input enable media_player.video_set_mouse_input(True) # start playing video media_player.play() # wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds # irrespective for length of video time.sleep(5) |
Output :
Another example
Below is the implementation
# importing vlc module import vlc # importing time module import time # creating vlc media player object media_player = vlc.MediaPlayer() # media object media = vlc.Media("1mp4.mkv") # setting media to the media player media_player.set_media(media) # making mouse input enable media_player.video_set_mouse_input(True) # start playing video media_player.play() # wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds # irrespective for length of video time.sleep(5) |
