I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS and when I try to run a Python code that uses the moviepy library, it returns an error related to ImageMagick:

My simple code:

from moviepy.editor import *

text = TextClip("test", fontsize=24, color='white')

text = text.set_duration(10)

background = ColorClip((1920, 1080), color=(0, 0, 0))

background = background.set_duration(10)

test_video = CompositeVideoClip([background, text.set_pos(('right', 'bottom'))])

The error when I run python3 code.py (I'm using virtual env called ttenv):

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/myuser/project/ttenv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/moviepy/video/VideoClip.py", line 1137, in __init__
    subprocess_call(cmd, logger=None)
  File "/home/myuser/project/ttenv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/moviepy/tools.py", line 54, in subprocess_call
    raise IOError(err.decode('utf8'))

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/myuser/project/make-video.py", line 4, in <module>
    text = TextClip("test", fontsize=24, color='white')

.

.This error can be due to the fact that ImageMagick is not installed on your computer, or (for Windows users) that you didn't specify the path to the ImageMagick binary in file conf.py, or that the path you specified is incorrect

My /etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE policymap [
  <!ELEMENT policymap (policy)*>
  <!ATTLIST policymap xmlns CDATA #FIXED ''>
  <!ELEMENT policy EMPTY>

<!--
  Configure ImageMagick policies.

  Domains include system, delegate, coder, filter, path, or resource.

  Rights include none, read, write, execute and all.  Use | to combine them,
  for example: "read | write" to permit read from, or write to, a path.

  Use a glob expression as a pattern.

  Suppose we do not want users to process MPEG video images:

    <policy domain="delegate" rights="none" pattern="mpeg:decode" />

  Here we do not want users reading images from HTTP:

    <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="HTTP" />

  The /repository file system is restricted to read only.  We use a glob
  expression to match all paths that start with /repository:

    <policy domain="path" rights="read" pattern="/repository/*" />

  Lets prevent users from executing any image filters:

    <policy domain="filter" rights="none" pattern="*" />

  Any large image is cached to disk rather than memory:

    <policy domain="resource" name="area" value="1GP"/>

  Use the default system font unless overwridden by the application:

    <policy domain="system" name="font" value="/usr/share/fonts/favorite.ttf"/>

  Define arguments for the memory, map, area, width, height and disk resources
  with SI prefixes (.e.g 100MB).  In addition, resource policies are maximums
  for each instance of ImageMagick (e.g. policy memory limit 1GB, -limit 2GB
  exceeds policy maximum so memory limit is 1GB).

  Rules are processed in order.  Here we want to restrict ImageMagick to only
  read or write a small subset of proven web-safe image types:

    <policy domain="delegate" rights="none" pattern="*" />
    <policy domain="filter" rights="none" pattern="*" />
    <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="*" />
-->
    <policy domain="coder" rights="read|write" pattern="{GIF,JPEG,PNG,WEBP}" />

My /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts permissions: -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root for all files

I've already tried this solutions:

  1. Updating it to the latest version running sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
  2. Giving permissions on /tmp and on font's file to my user
  3. Changing some configurations on policy.xml

Edit:

  • The file /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n022003l.pfb output:

  • Why are you telling us the permissions on `/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts` when your policy.xml specifies `/usr/share/fonts/favorite.ttf`? Have you installed `libfreetype`? Did you try a simple command with **ImageMagick** from the Command-line that uses a font? – Mark Setchell Jan 04 '23 at 14:12
  • @MarkSetchell I informed the permissions of this directory because they refer to the error that was given to me. The path you mentioned is actually not being applied as it is commented out in the policy.xml, which means it is using the default path. But even specifying ```/usr/share/fonts``` manually doesn't work. The ```libfreetype``` package is already installed and commands like ```convert -font /path/to/myfont.ttf -pointsize 48 label:"Hello World" hello.png``` return a similar problem. – pydev Jan 04 '23 at 22:18
  • Can you click [edit] and add in the output from `file /path/to/myfont.ttf` and `ls -l /path/to/myfont.ttf` and `convert -debug all -font ... -pointsize 48 label:"Hi" hello.png` – Mark Setchell Jan 04 '23 at 22:56
  • @MarkSetchell sure, it's done – pydev Jan 05 '23 at 04:21
  • Mmm... can you try with a TrueType `.ttf` font rather than `.pfb`? – Mark Setchell Jan 05 '23 at 07:37
  • @MarkSetchell I tried and doesn't worked too. It's on edit now – pydev Jan 05 '23 at 15:55
