Video

gradio.Video(···)

Description

Creates a video component that can be used to upload/record videos (as an input) or display videos (as an output). For the video to be playable in the browser it must have a compatible container and codec combination. Allowed combinations are .mp4 with h264 codec, .ogg with theora codec, and .webm with vp9 codec. If the component detects that the output video would not be playable in the browser it will attempt to convert it to a playable mp4 video. If the conversion fails, the original video is returned.

Behavior

As input: passes the uploaded video as a str filepath or URL whose extension can be modified by `format`.

As output: expects a str or pathlib.Path filepath to a video which is displayed, or a Tuple[str | pathlib.Path, str | pathlib.Path | None] where the first element is a filepath to a video and the second element is an optional filepath to a subtitle file.

Initialization

Parameter Description
value

str | Path | tuple[str | Path, str | Path | None] | Callable | None

default: None

A path or URL for the default value that Video component is going to take. Can also be a tuple consisting of (video filepath, subtitle filepath). If a subtitle file is provided, it should be of type .srt or .vtt. Or can be callable, in which case the function will be called whenever the app loads to set the initial value of the component.

format

str | None

default: None

Format of video format to be returned by component, such as 'avi' or 'mp4'. Use 'mp4' to ensure browser playability. If set to None, video will keep uploaded format.

source

Literal['upload', 'webcam']

default: "upload"

Source of video. "upload" creates a box where user can drop an video file, "webcam" allows user to record a video from their webcam.

height

int | None

default: None

Height of the displayed video in pixels.

width

int | None

default: None

Width of the displayed video in pixels.

label

str | None

default: None

component name in interface.

every

float | None

default: None

If `value` is a callable, run the function 'every' number of seconds while the client connection is open. Has no effect otherwise. Queue must be enabled. The event can be accessed (e.g. to cancel it) via this component's .load_event attribute.

show_label

bool

default: True

if True, will display label.

container

bool

default: True

If True, will place the component in a container - providing some extra padding around the border.

scale

int | None

default: None

relative width compared to adjacent Components in a Row. For example, if Component A has scale=2, and Component B has scale=1, A will be twice as wide as B. Should be an integer.

min_width

int

default: 160

minimum pixel width, will wrap if not sufficient screen space to satisfy this value. If a certain scale value results in this Component being narrower than min_width, the min_width parameter will be respected first.

interactive

bool | None

default: None

if True, will allow users to upload a video; if False, can only be used to display videos. If not provided, this is inferred based on whether the component is used as an input or output.

visible

bool

default: True

If False, component will be hidden.

elem_id

str | None

default: None

An optional string that is assigned as the id of this component in the HTML DOM. Can be used for targeting CSS styles.

elem_classes

list[str] | str | None

default: None

An optional list of strings that are assigned as the classes of this component in the HTML DOM. Can be used for targeting CSS styles.

mirror_webcam

bool

default: True

If True webcam will be mirrored. Default is True.

include_audio

bool | None

default: None

Whether the component should record/retain the audio track for a video. By default, audio is excluded for webcam videos and included for uploaded videos.

autoplay

bool

default: False

Whether to automatically play the video when the component is used as an output. Note: browsers will not autoplay video files if the user has not interacted with the page yet.

show_share_button

bool | None

default: None

If True, will show a share icon in the corner of the component that allows user to share outputs to Hugging Face Spaces Discussions. If False, icon does not appear. If set to None (default behavior), then the icon appears if this Gradio app is launched on Spaces, but not otherwise.

Methods

change

gradio.Video.change(fn, ···)

Description

This listener is triggered when the component's value changes either because of user input (e.g. a user types in a textbox) OR because of a function update (e.g. an image receives a value from the output of an event trigger). See `.input()` for a listener that is only triggered by user input. This method can be used when this component is in a Gradio Blocks.

Agruments

Parameter Description
fn

Callable | None

required

the function to wrap an interface around. Often a machine learning model's prediction function. Each parameter of the function corresponds to one input component, and the function should return a single value or a tuple of values, with each element in the tuple corresponding to one output component.

inputs

Component | list[Component] | set[Component] | None

default: None

List of gradio.components to use as inputs. If the function takes no inputs, this should be an empty list.

outputs

Component | list[Component] | None

default: None

List of gradio.components to use as outputs. If the function returns no outputs, this should be an empty list.

api_name

str | None | Literal[False]

default: None

If set to None, the endpoint will be exposed in the api docs as an unnamed endpoint, although this behavior will be changed in Gradio 4.0. If set to a string, the endpoint will be exposed in the api docs with the given name.

If False, will not run postprocessing of component data before returning 'fn' output to the browser.

cancels

dict[str, Any] | list[dict[str, Any]] | None
