I am working on a reddit youtube video creation script using MoviePy in Python. However, I encountered an error related to ImageMagick during the execution of the code.
The error message I received is:
Exception has occurred: OSError MoviePy Error: creation of None failed because of the following error:
magick.exe: label expected `@C:\Users\HHHHHH~1\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp2zy8buxv.txt' @ error/annotate.c/GetMultilineTypeMetrics/797. .
.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 OSError: magick.exe: label expected `@C:\Users\HHHHHH~1\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp2zy8buxv.txt' @ error/annotate.c/GetMultilineTypeMetrics/797.
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
File "C:\Users\hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh\Downloads\VSCODE\movie.py", line 84, in <module> txt_clip = (TextClip('\n'.join(lines), fontsize=25, font='Arial', color='white', align='West', size=(830,305)) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ OSError: MoviePy Error: creation of None failed because of the following error:

The full code reads:
