MoviePY can't detect ImageMagick binary (windows) about moneyprinter

[1NoobDev]

I found the same article, re-installed using the settings mentioned (including: legacy utilities). But that didn't resolve. Still have the same error as mentioned above. Will try to find solution and update the issue when found.

I was experiencing this issue but was able to fix it. The path that worked for me on mac was:
/opt/homebrew/opt/imagemagick/bin/magick

Downloading the binary and loading it from the MoneyPrinter directory didn't work for me for some reason (could have been permissions)

Are you using double backslash to provide the path of your magick.exe file?

Inside my .env I have:
IMAGEMAGICK_BINARY="C:\\Program Files\\ImageMagick-7.1.1-Q16-HDRI\\magick.exe"

Also, after reading some similar issues online, tried to hardcore the path inside main.py:
change_settings({"IMAGEMAGICK_BINARY": r"C:\\Program Files\\ImageMagick-7.1.1-Q16-HDRI\\magick.exe"})

But same error notification..

I'm not quite sure what the cause of this issue is, but maybe try re-installing ImageMagick.

I had a similar problem in Ubuntu (WSL) and to solve it I just gave all file permissions to the magic executable file. Maybe something similar can be done in Windows

Works with single slashes for me on Windows 11:

IMAGEMAGICK_BINARY="C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.1.1-Q16-HDRI\magick.exe" # Download from https://imagemagick.org/script/download.php

I had it like this initially and worked the whole evening.. until I restarted vscode it didn't work anymore.. I think it's more related to ImageMagick, and not this yt shorts generator epo.. thanks for the response though 💪

I renamed the folder and restarted vscode... It worked.

IMAGEMAGICK_BINARY="C:\\Program Files\\ImageMagick\\magick.exe"
