python video editing libs

[DavidM]

Hi,

Does anyone know of any python or python-wrapped libs for video editing?

My requirements:
- open video files in any of the popular containers (avi, mov, ogg, flv
etc) and all the popular codecs (mpeg3, theora, mpeg2 etc) and audio
codecs (raw, wav, mp3 etc)
- get an abstract video clip object on opening such a file
- query the clip object to determine stuff like length, framerate, size
etc
- iterate through all the frames, and get a frame object with each frame
- with a frame object, be able to access individual pixels, add graphic
images (eg, via PIL), export frame to graphics file (eg jpeg)
- with video clip object, be able to change framerate, insert/remove
frames etc, and render out with desired a-v codecs and container
- good well-documented API, preferably some usage examples

Does anything like this exist?

Cheers
David

Python OpenCV wrapper will meet most of your need, but I am not
sure ,
plz check it out.

GStreamer/GNonLin might possibly support what you are looking for, though
I have not tested this.
