How to convert video to memory with moviepy?

I’m converting videos into python and I’m using the moviepy library. I’m using the instructions:

clip = VideoFileClip('/home/developer/Pictures/aa.mov')
clip.write_videofile('/home/developer/Pictures/aa.mp4')

And it is working perfectly, however as my application does not receive the image via path file I am having difficulties in converting the file. In case I’m trying to load the file in memory and convert it:

img = open('/home/developer/Pictures/aa.mov','rb').read()
clip = VideoFileClip(img)
clip.write_videofile('/home/developer/Pictures/aa.mp4')

[1] TypeError: 'str' object is not callable

That doesn’t work because VideoFileClip just accepts the image path, there is some way to convert the video by loading the video in memory?

    It was not clear why you need to load the video in memory. To use open you need the path of the video, so why not go straight to VideoFileClip?

  • Because I get the entire file by paramentro, I don’t get it via stream.
