Better guide for moviepy about carnd-lanelines-p1 HOT 11 CLOSED

Hi Jiho, thanks for reporting this! Which OS are you on? I just tried this on my MacBook Pro and got the following error:

`

import imageio
imageio.plugins.ffmpeg.download()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
AttributeError: module 'imageio.plugins.ffmpeg' has no attribute 'download'

`

I see now that someone else had this issue using the Docker container, is that what you're running?

from carnd-lanelines-p1.

@ryan-keenan It looks weird..., I used MacBook Pro.
python versions are below

from carnd-lanelines-p1.

I used above commands on windows 10 anaconda spyder. It worked like charm

from carnd-lanelines-p1.

@ryan-keenan I saw the same error message when I run this code on python3 running on my terminal.
The needed files were successfully downloaded when I tried exactly same procedure in jupyter notebook.
I don't know why. but it works in my case.

from carnd-lanelines-p1.

I had the same issue with Ubuntu 16.04.

a) Works with what jihobak suggested

I think it would be good to have some introduction to the moviepy library. I had to go and figure out what the library did and the fact that the image was actual a tensor of the image array and not the image path (which may be obvious, but I tripped on it).

i too had same issue and resolved it by importing imageio and then running ffmpeg.download command as suggested above.

from carnd-lanelines-p1.

I was also facing this issue.
Env : Windows 10, Anaconda, Python 3.5, imageio ( 1.5.0 via menpo) ,
And I got AttributeError: module 'imageio.plugins.ffmpeg' has no attribute 'download'
Now, after updating the imageio to ( 2.1.1 via conda-forge), the issue is resolved.

from carnd-lanelines-p1.

Here are my information for you guys reference:
Env: Mac Sierra, 10.12.2

I firstly also got the error info after following the instruction of troubleshooting to resolve the ffmpeg issue by adding these two lines code in a code cell in the notebook:

import imageio
imageio.plugins.ffmpeg.download()

Then got below error information:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
AttributeError                            Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-8-07cd959207c9> in <module>()
      1 # Import everything needed to edit/save/watch video clips
      2 import imageio
----> 3 imageio.plugins.ffmpeg.download()
      4 from moviepy.editor import VideoFileClip
      5 from IPython.display import HTML

AttributeError: module 'imageio.plugins.ffmpeg' has no attribute 'download'

Tried several times, I find the root cause: Not successfully install the moviepy
Be sure you really successfully get below information after you run the command

CarND-Term1-Starter-Kit$ conda env create -f environment.yml

that means installed moviepy successfully:

Successfully built moviepy theano pyyaml
Installing collected packages: tqdm, moviepy, protobuf, tensorflow, theano, pyyaml, Keras
  Running setup.py install for Keras ... done
Successfully installed Keras-1.2.1 moviepy-0.2.2.11 protobuf-3.1.0.post1 pyyaml-3.12 tensorflow-0.12.1 theano-0.8.2 tqdm-4.11.2
#
# To activate this environment, use:
# > source activate carnd-term1
#
# To deactivate this environment, use:
# > source deactivate carnd-term1
#

Launch the Jupyter notebook, delete added two lines

import imageio 
imageio.plugins.ffmpeg.download()

Finally , execute with success.

Hey @BrandonHe... I am having the same issue (thanks for figuring this out btw...)
... do you mind explaining exactly how you got the moviepy to install successfully? (it's currently listed when i run [conda list] but I installed using pip)
thanks lots!

from carnd-lanelines-p1.

@Prtfw
I am not sure you need to configure a proxy, I configured a .bash_profile in home directory, via proxy to download all dependencies and packages needed.

  1 # Set proxy for terminal
  2 export http_proxy="yourproxy.com:port"
  3 export https_proxy="yourproxy.com:port"
  4 # added by Miniconda3 4.2.12 installer
  5 export PATH="/Users/brandon/miniconda3/bin:$PATH"

Then run command:
conda env create -f environment.yml
After command executes successful, it'll return screen shot like I made:

I think using the pip install is also OK. Moviepy is also installed via pip in environment.yml. Did you run command with successful return? The package version should be also considered.

For me, the following solution worked:
imageio/imageio#357
