Combine two videos in to the same frame|Python opencv

## import library

Pythonimport cv2
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

Reading Video

With the Code below, you can load and show the video on window “video”.

Python# video read
Video1 = "test2.mp4"
Video2 = "output.avi"

# acquiring the fps and the size of the Video one
fps_c1 = cap1.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FPS)
Video_h1 = cap1.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT)
Video_w1 = cap1.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH)

while (True):
   ret,frame=cap.read()
   cv2.imshow("video",frame)
   if cv2.waitKey(1)&0xFF==ord('q'):
       cv2.destroyAllWindows()
       break

Combine Two Frames

def Fram_connect(fram1, frame2, h = Video_h, w = Video_w):
  frame2 = cv2.resize(frame2, (int(Video_w), int(Video_h)), interpolation = cv2.INTER_AREA)
  BG = cv2.resize(frame1, (int(Video_w * 2), int(Video_h)), interpolation = cv2.INTER_AREA)
  BG[0:int(Video_h),0:int(Video_w)] = frame1
  BG[0:int(Video_h),int(Video_w):int(Video_w*2)] = frame2
  return (BG)

Write the result

fps = fps_c

size = (1920, 1080)

fourcc = cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc('M','J','P','G')
videowriter = cv2.VideoWriter(OUTPUT + ".avi",fourcc,fps,size)

while (True):
  ret,frame1=cap1.read()
  ret,frame2=cap2.read()
  img = Fram_connect(frame1, frame2, Video_w, Video_h,  Video_w2, Video_h2)
  img = cv2.resize(img, size, interpolation = cv2.INTER_AREA)
  videowriter.write(img)

videowriter.write(frame)
