ffmpeg-python VS xonsh

Even given an option it can be difficult to find the corresponding documentation, if only because of the many different submodules and encoders and decoders and filters that have o-so-slightly different options. That said, I've just switched from pydub to ffmpeg-python (due to memory issues of the former[1]) and judging from the Jupiter notebook[2] it seems a much more intuitive method of constructing ffmpeg pipelines.

You might want to look into ffmpeg-python as well

This bug on github sounds like the same issue you have

take a look at https://github.com/kkroening/ffmpeg-python

The ffmpeg-python python package still makes use of the “future” python package (search for “past” in the code base). These should be removed and updated as necessary.

I've had a look through these examples, but I can't get the numpy conversion to work (I get broken pipe errors, but if any of you can get it working this solution would be ideal)

Your going to be wanting to enumerate all the files in a folder, shuffle them, and then use a library for splicing them together. A quick google search brought me to moviePy, which seems pretty solid. ffmpeg is the industry standard for programmatically working with video, but it's...complicated to say the least. Looks like there are some good python bindings for it, but it may be overkill for this project. I'm sure there are others out there too.

I've been using ffmpeg-python recently, and it will do a lot of the crazy complex transforms for you, and you can write sane python code vs. trying to deal with the crazy default ffmpeg syntax.

ffmpeg is the traditional Swiss Army knife for video stuff. there's a Python library out there. might not be appropriate in an embedded environment though, it's a bit of a beast.

xonsh – Python-powered, cross-platform, Unix-gazing shell

You need to downgrade ptk version. Look here - https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/issues/5241#issuecomment-1961...

Friends, I'm not saying that tools like zx are not good. I do like to write some scripts using js/ts. I believe pythoners prefer https://xon.sh/ . Perl is also attractive and interesting. Fish is friendly.

However, I still believe that posix-shell has its own advantages. The balance among size, code length, and expressiveness. I think the only possible competitors are tcl and perl, maybe lua.

Those of you who use (or used) this as your shell: care to share your experience?

It seems a lot less full-featured than https://xon.sh/, but maybe you don't need a lot of bells and whistles for regular usage. I mostly run build, execute, and install commands.

I'm somewhat enticed at the possibility of being able to wrap common executables into forms that are typed (like nushell or elvish) and manipulate them in a way that leverages the type checker.

In that case, is it even more similar to xonsh?
