how to create video player in pyqt5 for windows to play mp4 using python code?
I tried to create video player for mp4 in windows 10 os. it is always showing error. i tried multiple method. but always failing
- I tried code from this location https://pythonprogramminglanguage.com/pyqt5-video-widget/
QMediaPlayer error:
- I tried python-vlc. it is working only when I already installed vlc player. if i uninstalled vlc player it is not working
vlc error :
File "<module1>", line 7, in <module>
File "D:\Portable_Python\App\Python\lib\site-packages\vlc.py", line 210, in <module>
dll, plugin_path = find_lib()

I tried code from this location https://github.com/PaulleDemon/tkVideoPlayer/blob/master/examples/sample_player.py
it is working fine. but I couldn't able it embed to pyqt5 window.
I attached example video file in this location https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AaTzf3LBUMCztO8hYpF9muPUImVDX1s_/view?usp=sharing
please give me a best solution in any one module.
I added simple code below . this is playing .avi file and not playing .mp4 files
from PyQt5.QtMultimediaWidgets import QVideoWidget
from PyQt5.QtCore import QUrl
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QPushButton
from PyQt5.QtMultimedia import QMediaContent, QMediaPlayer
import sys
class VideoPlayer:
def __init__(self):
self.video = QVideoWidget()
self.video.resize(300, 300)
self.video.move(0, 0)
self.player = QMediaPlayer()
self.player.setVideoOutput(self.video)
self.player.setMedia(QMediaContent(QUrl.fromLocalFile("D:/2.mp4")))
def callback(self):
self.player.setPosition(0) # to start at the beginning of the video every time
self.video.show()
self.player.play()
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
v = VideoPlayer()
b = QPushButton('start')
b.clicked.connect(v.callback)
b.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
Solution
As couldn't able to find direct player. I used cv module and ffpyplayer to integrate with pyqt5. it is temporarily resolved my issue. the code is given below.
from ffpyplayer.player import MediaPlayer
from PyQt5 import QtGui,QtCore
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt5.QtGui import *
from PyQt5.QtCore import *
import sys
import threading
import time

from PIL import Image
import numpy
import os
class VideoPlayer:
def __init__(self, filename,volume = 1.0):
if not os.path.exists(filename):raise FileNotFound(filename)
self.close = False
self.state = None
self.frame = None
self.l=None
self.filename = filename
self.skip_interval=5
self.player = MediaPlayer(filename, ff_opts={'sync': 'audio', 'paused': False, 'volume': volume, 't': 1e7+1, 'ss': 0})
time.sleep(1)
self.duration=self.player.get_metadata()['duration']
handler_thread = threading.Thread(target=self.play, args=(), daemon=True)
handler_thread.start()
def play(self):
while True:
frame, self.val = self.player.get_frame()
if self.val == 'eof':self.close=True
if self.close == True:
self.player.toggle_pause()
self.player.close_player()
time.sleep(2)
break
if isinstance(self.val, str) or self.val == 0.0:waitkey = 32
else:waitkey = int(self.val * 100)
pressed_key = cv2.waitKey(waitkey) & 0xFF
if frame is None:continue
image, pts = frame
self.frame = (image, self.val)
x, y = image.get_size()
data = image.to_bytearray()[0]
image = Image.frombytes("RGB", (x, y), bytes(data))
image = cv2.cvtColor(numpy.array(image), cv2.COLOR_RGB2BGR)
self.frame=frame
if self.l!=None:
h, w, ch = image.shape
Image2 = QImage(image.data, w, h, ch * w, QImage.Format_RGB888)
self.pixmap=QPixmap.fromImage(Image2)
self.l.setPixmap(self.pixmap)
self.l.setFixedWidth(self.l.pixmap().width())
self.l.setFixedHeight(self.l.pixmap().height())
self.l.parent().update()
del image
