Python Get Video Resolution with MoviePy – Python Tutorial

In order to resize a video, we should know the resolution of a video. In this tutorial, we will introduce how to use python moviepy library to get it.

Import python moviepy

We can import python moviepy library as follows:

from moviepy.editor import *

Then, we can use it to get a video resolution.

Open a video and get its resolution

For example:

clip = VideoFileClip(r"test.mp4") 
value = clip.size
  
# printing size
print("Clip Size ", end = " : ")
print(value)

In this code, we will use clip.size to show a video frame resolution.
