In this article we will see how we can set mrl 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. MediaPlayer object is the basic object in vlc module for playing the video. We can create a MediaPlayer object with the help of MediaPlayer method. MRL is the media resource locator, in other words it is the destination of the media to be played.
In order to do this we will use set_mrl method with the MediaPlayer object
Syntax : media_player.set_mrl(mrl)
Argument : It takes string as argument
Return : It returns Media object
Below is the implementation
# importing vlc moduleimport vlc
# importing time moduleimport time
# creating vlc media player objectmedia_player = vlc.MediaPlayer()
# media resource locatormrl = "death_note.mkv"
# setting mrl to the media playermedia_player.set_mrl(mrl)# start playing videomedia_player.play()# wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds# irrespective for length of videotime.sleep(5)
|
Output :
# importing vlc moduleimport vlc
# importing time moduleimport time
# creating vlc media player objectmedia_player = vlc.MediaPlayer()
# media resource locatormrl = "1.mp4"
# setting mrl to the media playermedia_player.set_mrl(mrl)# start playing videomedia_player.play()# wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds# irrespective for length of videotime.sleep(5)
