In this article we will see how we can get the title description 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. We can create a MediaPlayer object with the help of MediaPlayer method. Unlike full title description it is short and description which is freed with track_description_list_release.
In order to do this we will use
video_get_title_descriptionmethod with the MediaPlayer objectSyntax : media_player.video_get_title_description()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns list
Below is the implementation
# importing vlc module import vlc
# importing time module import time
# creating vlc media player object media_player = vlc.MediaPlayer()
# media resource locator mrl = "death_note.mkv"
# setting mrl to the media player media_player.set_mrl(mrl) # start playing video media_player.play() # wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds # irrespective for length of video time.sleep(5)
# getting title description value = media_player.video_get_title_description()
# printing title description print("Title description : ")
print(value)
|
Output :
Title description : <vlc.LP_TrackDescription object at 0x0000014853CB2548
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 resource locator mrl = "1.mp4"
# setting mrl to the media player media_player.set_mrl(mrl) # start playing video media_player.play() # wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds # irrespective for length of video time.sleep(5)
# getting cursor co-ordinates value = media_player.video_get_cursor()
# getting title description value = media_player.video_get_title_description()
# printing title description print("Title description : ")
print(value)

Output :
Title description : <vlc.LP_TrackDescription object at 0x0000014853CB25A1
