Important Announcements

• Support removed for Python versions 2.7, 3.4 & 3.5 [#1103, #1106]
• If you were previously setting custom locations for FFmpeg or ImageMagick in config_defaults.py and MoviePy still cannot autodetect the binaries, you will need to switch to the new method using enviroment variables. [#1109]
• All previously deprecated methods and parameters have been removed [#1115]

Added

• BitmapClip allows creating of custom frames using strings of letters
• Clips can now be tested for equality with other clips using ==. This checks whether every frame of the two clips are identical
• Support for path-like objects as an option wherever filenames are passed in as arguments [#1137]
• Autodetect ImageMagick executable on Windows [#1109]
• Optionally configure paths to FFmpeg and ImageMagick binaries with environment variables or a .env file [#1109]
• Optional encoding parameter in SubtitlesClip [#1043]
• Added new ffmpeg_stabilize_video() function in ffmpeg_tools
• Optional temp_audiofile_path parameter in VideoClip.write_videofile() to specify where the temporary audiofile should be created [#1144]
• VideoClip.set_layer() to specify the layer of the clip for use when creating a CompositeVideoClip [#1176]
• ffmpeg_parse_infos additionally returns "video_bitrate" and "audio_bitrate" values [#930]
• Access to the source video's bitrate in a VideoFileClip or AudioFileClip through videoclip.reader.bitrate and audioclip.reader.bitrate [#930]

Changed

• vfx.scroll arguments w and h have had their order swapped. The correct order is now w, h but it is preferable to explicitly use keyword arguments
• Removed extra . in the output file name of ffmpeg_extract_subclip() when targetname is not specified [#939]

Removed

• Support removed for Python versions 2.7, 3.4 & 3.5
• Setting paths to ImageMagick and FFMpeg binaries in config_defaults.py is no longer possible [#1109]
• Removed config.get_setting() and config.change_settings() functions [#1109]
• All previously deprecated methods and parameters [#1115]:
  • AudioClip.to_audiofile() -> use AudioClip.write_audiofile()
  • VideoClip.to_videofile() -> use VideoClip.write_videofile()
  • VideoClip.to_images_sequence() -> use VideoClip.write_images_sequence()
  • concatenate() -> use concatenate_videoclips()
  • verbose parameter in AudioClip.write_audiofile(), ffmpeg_audiowriter(), VideoFileClip(), VideoClip.write_videofile(), VideoClip.write_images_sequence(), ffmpeg_write_video(), write_gif(), write_gif_with_tempfiles(), write_gif_with_image_io() -> Instead of verbose=False, use logger=None
  • verbose_print() -> no replacement
  • col parameter in ColorClip() -> use color

Fixed

• When using VideoClip.write_videofile() with write_logfile=True, errors would not be properly reported [#890]
• TextClip.list("color") now returns a list of bytes, not strings [#1119]
• TextClip.search("colorname", "color") does not crash with a TypeError [#1119]
• vfx.even_size previously created clips with odd sizes [#1124]
• IndexError in vfx.freeze, vfx.time_mirror and vfx.time_symmetrize [#1124]
• Using rotate() with a ColorClip no longer crashes [#1139]
• AudioFileClip would not generate audio identical to the original file [#1108]
• Fixed TypeError when using filename instead of txt parameter in TextClip [#1201]
• Several issues resulting from incorrect time values due to floating point errors [#1195], for example:
  • Blank frames at the end of clips [#210]
  • Sometimes getting IndexError: list index out of range when using concatenate_videoclips [#646]
• Applying resize with a non-constant newsize to a clip with a mask would remove the mask [#1200]
• Using color_gradient() would crash with ValueError: The truth value of an array with more than one element is ambiguous [#1212]
