MoviePy – Setting is Memorize Property

In this article we will see how we can set memorize property of the video file clip in MoviePy. MoviePy is a Python module for video editing, which can be used for basic operations on videos and GIF’s. A video is the combination of multiple frames therefore for each time there exist a specific frame. Memorize property tells whether the clip should keep the last frame read in memory.

In order to do this we will use set_memoize method with the VideoFileClip object Syntax : clip.set_memoize(True) Argument : It takes bool as argument Return : It returns VideoFileClip object

Below is the implementation 

Python3




# Import everything needed to edit video clips
from moviepy.editor import *
   
# loading video dsa gfg intro video
clip = VideoFileClip("dsa_geek.mp4")
    
# getting only first 5 seconds
clip = clip.subclip(0, 5)
 
# setting memorize property
new_clip = clip.set_memoize(True)
 
 
# displaying new clip
new_clip.ipython_display(width = 420)


Output :

Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4

                                                                                                                       
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4

Another example 

Python3




# Import everything needed to edit video clips
from moviepy.editor import *
 
# loading video gfg
clip = VideoFileClip("neveropen.mp4")
 
 
# getting only first 5 seconds
clip = clip.subclip(0, 5)
 
# setting memorize property
new_clip = clip.set_memoize(True)
 
 
# displaying new clip
new_clip.ipython_display(width = 420)


Output :

Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
MoviePy - Writing audio in __temp__TEMP_MPY_wvf_snd.mp3
                                                                                                                       
MoviePy - Done.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4

                                                                                                                       
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4
