moviepy.video.io.ffplay_previewer.ffplay_preview_video(clip, fps, pixel_format='rgb24', audio_flag=None, video_flag=None)[source]#

Preview the clip using ffplay. See VideoClip.preview for details on the parameters.

Parameters:

  • clip (VideoClip) -- The clip to preview

  • fps (int) -- Number of frames per seconds in the displayed video.

  • pixel_format (str, optional) --

    Warning: This is not used anywhere in the code and should probably be removed. It is believed pixel format rgb24 does not work properly for now because it requires applying a mask on CompositeVideoClip and that is believed to not be working.

    Pixel format for the output video file, rgb24 for normal video, rgba if video with mask

  • audio_flag (Thread.Event, optional) -- A thread event that video will wait for. If not provided we ignore audio

  • video_flag (Thread.Event, optional) -- A thread event that video will set after first frame has been shown. If not provided, we simply ignore
