Playing multiple videos at the same time

wishiknewprogramming

Hello everyone,

Sorry if I am asking the same question again, but I couldn't find any solution in the forum.

I am trying to play horizontally aligned 3 videos at the same time in each trial (each lasting 6 seconds with .mp4 extensions), which will be switched to the next trial with keypress even if the movies are not finished yet. Is there any way to do it by UI or script?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Best,

Judas

Hi Judas,

That is probably possible with the OpenCV2 library in Python. It requires Python coding though. Also, even though I am rather certain that it will work, I haven't tested it myself. Give it a go, and if you get stuck, we can try to help.

Good luck,

Eduard

Hi Eduard,

Thanks for the answer! Actually, I couldn't do it and found that workaround: by using ffmpeg, I merged those 3 videos and created one single video file for each combination.

Hope this would be useful for someone else.

Best,

Judas
