Error when installing with imageio

[natelindev]

Expected Behavior

To install moviepy properly

Actual Behavior

when trying to install it notifies that

moviepy 1.0.0 has requirement imageio<2.5,>=2.0, but you'll have imageio 2.5.0 which is incompatible.

Then I run pip3 install 'imageio<2.5,>=2.0'

After that it notifies that

moviepy 1.0.0 has requirement imageio<3.0,>=2.5, but you'll have imageio 2.4.1 which is incompatible.

Then I'm confused, does moviepy requrire 'imageio<3.0,>=2.5' or 'imageio<2.5,>=2.0' ?
Or do I need a way to install both?

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

install Python3.6.3 from source
Then install moviepy

Specifications

• Python Version: 3.6.3
• Moviepy Version: 1.0.0
• Platform Name: Amazon Linux 2 AMI
• Platform Version: 4.14.88-88.76.amzn2.x86_64

Weird, I don't have this problem and the test suite says it works fine. How do you install moviepy ? Using "pip3 install moviepy" ? Could you paste the full error you get ?

I am having a similar issue in Python 2.7 in an Ubuntu 16.04 docker container.

On a fresh install, I get:

moviepy 1.0.0 has requirement imageio<3.0,>=2.5; python_version >= "3.4", but you'll have imageio 2.4.1 which is incompatible.

Ahh...

pip install --upgrade setuptools

fixed the issue for me.

I also have the same issue and have you solved it?

Well I solved my problem by not using moviepy 1.0.0 😅
namely:

pip3 install 'moviepy<1.0.0'

Can this be closed?

For everyone having this issue recently please use pip3 instead of pip when install moviepy:
pip3 install moviepy
