Requirements - ffmpeg==1.4

Source Code:

import ffmpeg

import argparse

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='''Split A media file

into two chunks''')

parser.add_argument('inputfile', help="Input filename")

parser.add_argument('starttime', type=float, help="Start time in

seconds")

parser.add_argument('endtime', type=float, help="End time in

seconds")

parser.add_argument('outputfile1', help="Output filename")

parser.add_argument('outputfile2', help="Output filename")

args = parser.parse_args()

in1 = ffmpeg.input(args.inputfile)

v1 = in1.filter('trim', start=float(args.starttime), end=(args.endtime))

v2 = in1.filter('trim', start=float(args.endtime))

out1 = ffmpeg.output(v1, args.outputfile1)

out2 = ffmpeg.output(v2, args.outputfile2)

out1.run()

out2.run()
