Python `ffmpegio` package aims to bring the full capability of `FFmpeg `__
to read, write, probe, and manipulate multimedia data to Python. FFmpeg is an open-source cross-platform
multimedia framework, which can handle most of the multimedia formats available today.

.. note::

Since v0.3.0, `ffmpegio` Python distribution package has been split into `ffmpegio-core` and `ffmpegio` to allow
Numpy-independent installation.

Install the full `ffmpegio` package via ``pip``:

.. code-block:: bash

pip install ffmpegio

If `numpy.ndarray` data I/O is not needed, instead use

.. code-block:: bash

pip install ffmpegio-core

Main Features
-------------

* Pure-Python light-weight package interacting with FFmpeg executable found in
the system
* Transcode a media file to another in Python
* Read, write, filter, and create functions for audio, image, and video data
* Context-managing `ffmpegio.open` to perform stream read/write operations of video and audio
* Automatically detect and convert audio & video formats to and from `numpy.ndarray` properties
* Probe media file information
* Accepts all FFmpeg options including filter graphs
* Supports a user callback whenever FFmpeg updates its progress information file
(see `-progress` FFmpeg option)
* `ffconcat` scripter to make the use of `-f concat` demuxer easier
* I/O device enumeration to eliminate the need to look up device names. (currently supports only: Windows DirectShow)
* More features to follow

Transcoding
^^^^^^^^^^^

.. code-block:: python

>>> # transcode, overwrite output file if exists, showing the FFmpeg log
>>> ffmpegio.transcode('input.avi', 'output.mp4', overwrite=True, show_log=True)

>>> # 1-pass H.264 transcoding
>>> ffmpegio.transcode('input.avi', 'output.mkv', vcodec='libx264', show_log=True,
>>> preset='slow', crf=22, acodec='copy')

>>> **{'c:v':'libx264', 'b:v':'2600k', 'c:a':'aac', 'b:a':'128k'})

>>> # concatenate videos using concat demuxer
>>> files = ['/video/video1.mkv','/video/video2.mkv']
>>> ffconcat = ffmpegio.FFConcat()
>>> ffconcat.add_files(files)
>>> with ffconcat: # generates temporary ffconcat file
>>> ffmpegio.transcode(ffconcat, 'output.mkv', f_in='concat', codec='copy', safe_in=0)

Read Audio Files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. code-block:: python

>>> # read audio samples in its native sample format and return all channels
>>> fs, x = ffmpegio.audio.read('myaudio.wav')
>>> # fs: sampling rate in samples/second, x: [nsamples x nchannels] numpy array

>>> # read audio samples from 24.15 seconds to 63.2 seconds, pre-convert to mono in float data type
>>> fs, x = ffmpegio.audio.read('myaudio.flac', ss=24.15, to=63.2, sample_fmt='dbl', ac=1)

>>> # read filtered audio samples first 10 seconds
>>> # filter: equalizer which attenuate 10 dB at 1 kHz with a bandwidth of 200 Hz
>>> fs, x = ffmpegio.audio.read('myaudio.mp3', t=10.0, af='equalizer=f=1000:t=h:width=200:g=-10')

>>> # read JPEG image, then convert to grayscale and proportionally scale so the width is 480 pixels
>>> I = ffmpegio.image.read('myimage.jpg', pix_fmt='grayscale', s='480x-1')

>>> # read PNG image with transparency, convert it to plain RGB by filling transparent pixels orange
>>> I = ffmpegio.image.read('myimage.png', pix_fmt='rgb24', fill_color='orange')

>>> # capture video frame at timestamp=4:25.3 and convert non-square pixels to square
>>> I = ffmpegio.image.read('myvideo.mpg', ss='4:25.3', square_pixels='upscale')

>>> # capture 5 video frames and tile them on 3x2 grid with 7px between them, and 2px of initial margin
>>> I = ffmpegio.image.read('myvideo.mp4', vf='tile=3x2:nb_frames=5:padding=7:margin=2')

>>> # create spectrogram of the audio input (must specify pix_fmt if input is audio)
