Make a clip as long as a sound using moviepy

Question

My clip is 14 minutes long. The sound sometimes can last up to an hour or more. I don’t want to make the clip an hour long for example. When I have to make that clip.set_duration(audio.duration) it’s easy, but how can I make that when the original clip ends, it loops and goes on?

If you want to loop the audio to match the duration of the video clip can use below code

from pydub import AudioSegment

audio = AudioSegment.from_file("audio.mp3", format="mp3")

audio_length = len(audio)
desired_length = 14 * 60 * 1000  
num_loops = desired_length // audio_length + 1

looped_audio = audio * num_loops

looped_audio.export("looped_audio.mp3", format="mp3")

The same idea can be applied to loop the video so that it lasts as long as the audio

from moviepy.video.io.VideoFileClip import VideoFileClip

video = VideoFileClip("video.mp4")

video_duration = video.duration
audio_duration = 61  
num_loops = int(audio_duration / video_duration) + 1

looped_video = video.repeat(num_loops)

looped_video.write_videofile("looped_video.mp4")
