read_video

torchvision.io.read_video(filename: str, start_pts: Union[float, Fraction] = 0, end_pts: Optional[Union[float, Fraction]] = None, pts_unit: str = 'pts', output_format: str = 'THWC') Tuple[Tensor, Tensor, Dict[str, Any]][source]

Reads a video from a file, returning both the video frames as well as the audio frames

Parameters:
  • filename (str) – path to the video file

  • start_pts (python:int if pts_unit = 'pts', python:float / Fraction if pts_unit = 'sec', optional) – The start presentation time of the video

  • end_pts (python:int if pts_unit = 'pts', python:float / Fraction if pts_unit = 'sec', optional) – The end presentation time

  • pts_unit (str, optional) – unit in which start_pts and end_pts values will be interpreted, either ‘pts’ or ‘sec’. Defaults to ‘pts’.

  • output_format (str, optional) – The format of the output video tensors. Can be either “THWC” (default) or “TCHW”.

Returns:

the T video frames aframes (Tensor[K, L]): the audio frames, where K is the number of channels and L is the number of points info (Dict): metadata for the video and audio. Can contain the fields video_fps (float) and audio_fps (int)

Return type:

vframes (Tensor[T, H, W, C] or Tensor[T, C, H, W])
