FFmpeg wrapper for python. It uses the most up-to-date FFmpeg binary to provide both FFmpeg and FFprobe functionality. So you can kill two birds with one stone.
The beautiful thing about this is that it comes with it's own FFmpeg executable. It is compressed, making it the smallest one you can find. Becuase it's cross-platform and python 3, it is the only option available for building cross-platform apps with ffmpeg in python.
Uses current FFmpeg version
pip install pyffmpeg
from pyffmpeg import FFmpeg
inp = 'path/to/music_folder/f.mp4'
out = 'path/to/music_folder/f.mp3'
ff = FFmpeg()
output_file = ff.convert(inp, out)
print(output_file)
Provides FFprobe functions and values
from pyffmpeg import FFprobe
input_file = 'path/to/music.mp3'
fp = FFprobe(input_file)
print(fp.duration)
will print
> 00:04:32:32
