Welcome folks today in this blog post we will be using the moviepy library to merge multiple video files in command line. All the full source code of the application is shown below.
Get Started
First of all we need to install the below moviepylibrary using the pip command as shown below
pip install moviepy
In order to get started you need to make an app.py file and copy paste the following code
app.py

# Import everything needed to edit video clips from moviepy.editor import * # loading video dsa gfg intro video clip = VideoFileClip("video.mp4") # getting subclip as video is large clip1 = clip.subclip(0, 5) # getting subclip as video is large clip2 = clip.subclip(15, 20) # concatenating both the clips final = concatenate_videoclips([clip1, clip2]) #writing the video into a file / saving the combined video final.write_videofile("merge.mp4") # showing final clip final.ipython_display(width = 480) |
As you can see we are importing the moviepy library at the very top and then we are only taking the first 5 seconds of the input video using the subclip()method and then we are using the concatenate_videoclips() method to merge multiple video files. And then we are writing the output video file using the write_videofile() method.
