It seems like either your are missing import some library or refer the wrong video file path Can you share some related working code here to further understand of your actual error?

Ah, yes. Thank you David. I'm attempting to follow the tutorial listed in <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/machine-learning/create-video-subtitles-with-translation-using-machine-learning/" rel="ugc">the AWS doc</a> in order to test MoviePy. In this test case, I'm taking an existing MP4 file, reducing the volume and writing the output as a WebM file. Here is the test code that produces the error I mentioned in the opening question: <pre><code class="code-10 nolinks" id="code-20-43322574-1"># Import everything needed to edit video clips
from moviepy.editor import *

# Load .mp4 and select the subclip 00:00:50 - 00:00:60
clip = VideoFileClip("TEMP_VTT-MS-Test.mp4").subclip(50,60)

# Reduce the audio volume (volume x 0.8)
clip = clip.volumex(0.8)

# Write the result to a file (many options available !)
video.write_videofile("TEMP_VTT-MS-Test.webm")
</code></pre> Hopefully something is clear from this. Thanks!
</div>

<div>
Noted. Can you rename the file below and try again? <pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-43322593-1">clip = VideoFileClip("mstemp.mp4").subclip(50,60)
</code></pre>
</div>

Thank you, David. I renamed the file that and changed the script, but I'm getting the same error. Here is the full error and path: <pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-43322596-1">C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.1.0-Q16-HDRI\TEMP_TestMoviePY&gt;moviepy-test.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
&nbsp; File "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.1.0-Q16-HDRI\TEMP_TestMoviePY\moviepy-test.py", line 20, in &lt;module&gt;
&nbsp; &nbsp; video.write_videofile("mstemp.webm")
NameError: name 'video' is not defined
</code></pre> Thanks again for your help.
</div>

<div>
can I know your current working path? <pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-43322600-1">import os

path = os.getcwd()

print(path)
</code></pre>
</div>

<div>
The current working path is: C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.1.0-Q16-HDRI\TEMP_TestMoviePY
</div>

<div>
Noted. Then, you need to adjust your current working path. <pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-43322605-1">import os

#&nbsp;change the current directory to the directory where the running script file (.py) 
os.chdir(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))
</code></pre><pre><code class="code-10 nolinks" id="code-20-43322605-2"># Import everything needed to edit video clips
from moviepy.editor import *

# Load .mp4 and select the subclip 00:00:50 - 00:00:60
clip = VideoFileClip("mstemp.mp4").subclip(50,60)

# Reduce the audio volume (volume x 0.8)
clip = clip.volumex(0.8)

# Write the result to a file (many options available !)
video.write_videofile("TEMP_VTT-MS-Test.webm")
</code></pre>
</div>

<div>
Thanks David - I added the import command to the top of the script but I'm getting the same error and no results (e.g. no WebM file). Below is the new script I'm running, perhaps I missing something. <pre><code class="code-10 nolinks" id="code-20-43322607-1">import os

# change the current directory to the directory where the running script file (.py) 
os.chdir(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))

# Import everything needed to edit video clips
from moviepy.editor import *

# Load myHolidays.mp4 and select the subclip 00:00:50 - 00:00:60
clip = VideoFileClip("mstemp.mp4").subclip(50,60)

# Reduce the audio volume (volume x 0.8)
clip = clip.volumex(0.8)

# Write the result to a file (many options available !)
video.write_videofile("mstemp.webm")

</code></pre> Does this script look correct to you (for what you intended me to run)?

Python is a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than would be possible in other languages. Python supports multiple programming paradigms, including object-oriented, imperative and functional programming or procedural styles. It features a dynamic type system and automatic memory management and has a large and comprehensive set of standard libraries, including NumPy, SciPy, Django, PyQuery, and PyLibrary.
