import moviepy 报错

i was trying to create an application with Python using the moviepy library. I installed it using:

pip install moviepy
 
 
1
 
 
1

I found this from a MoviePy crash-course:

Import everything needed to edit video clips

from moviepy.editor import *
 
 
1
 
 
1

After trying to run this line i get this error:

What is the problem here, and how can i fix it?

Run in a python console/shell (e.g. IPython/IDLE shell):

>>> import imageio
>>> imageio.plugins.ffmpeg.download()

Moviepy uses the module imageio, which uses the program ffmpeg. It needs to download it before it can use it, and you can download it with the above imageio command.
