pyffmpeg 2.0.3

FFmpeg wrapper for python

pyffmpeg

FFmpeg wrapper for python. It uses FFmpeg binary to provide both FFmpeg and FFprobe functionality (FFprobe functionality includes get_album_art). So you can kill two birds with one stone.

The beautiful thing about it is that it comes with its own FFmpeg executable. It is compressed, making it the smallest you can find. And becuase its cross-platform and python 3, it is the only option available for building cross-platform apps with ffmpeg in python.

Installation

pip install pyffmpeg

Usage

FFmpeg

from pyffmpeg import FFmpeg

inp = 'path/to/music_folder/f.mp4'
out = 'path/to/music_folder/f.mp3'

ff = FFmpeg()

output_file = ff.convert(inp, out)

print(output_file)

FFprobe

Provides FFprobe functions and values

from pyffmpeg import FFprobe

input_file = 'path/to/music.mp3'
fp = FFprobe(input_file)

print(fp.duration)

will print

> 00:04:32:32

NB: The above digits is just for illustration
