Last Updated :
18 Aug, 2020
In this article we will see how we can get track count of the MediaPlayer object in the python vlc module. VLC media player is a free and open-source portable cross-platform media player software and streaming media server developed by the VideoLAN project. MediPlyer object is the basic object in vlc module for playing the video. A video can have multiple tracks which user can select.
In order to do this we will use video_get_track_count
method with the MediaPlayer object
Syntax : media_player.video_get_track_count()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns integer
Below is the implementation
import vlc
import time
media_player = vlc.MediaPlayer()
media = vlc.Media( "death_note.mkv" )
media_player.set_media(media)
media_player.video_set_scale( 0.6 )
media_player.play()
time.sleep( 5 )
value = media_player.video_get_track_count()
print ( "Track Count : " )
print (value)
|
Output :
Track Count :
2
Another example
Below is the implementation
import vlc
import time
media_player = vlc.MediaPlayer()
media = vlc.Media( "1mp4.mkv" )
media_player.set_media(media)
media_player.video_set_scale( 0.6 )
media_player.play()
time.sleep( 5 )
value = media_player.video_get_track_count()
print ( "Track Count : " )
print (value)
