for some reason, I can't use custom fonts when creating a MoviePy TextClip. It says in their documentation that it should be to use all the fonts installed on my system, but when I run this little code snippet in Python (to get all the possible TextClip fonts):
from moviepy.editor import TextClip
print(TextClip.list("font"))
It prints a list of all the basic fonts that you get when you install Windows, but none of the custom fonts that I installed myself. (And that I can see in the Windows/Fonts directory)
I did some research and it seems that it might be related with ImageMagick, but apparently, on Windows, the fonts should be handled without the user having to do anything. I tried reinstalling ImageMagick, but it didn't solve the issue. I also found a post talking about editing the type-windows.xml file in the ImageMagick config, but when I open it, I see a list of fonts looking like this:
...
<type name="Arial-Special-G2-Italic" fullname="Arial Special G2 Italic" family="Arial Special G2" weight="400" style="italic" stretch="normal" glyphs="/usr/share/fonts/msttcore/msgeoai2.ttf"/>
<type name="Bookman-Old-Style" fullname="Bookman Old Style" family="Bookman Old Style" weight="400" style="normal" stretch="normal" glyphs="/usr/share/fonts/msttcore/bkmnos.ttf"/>
<type name="Bookman-Old-Style-Bold" fullname="Bookman Old Style Bold" family="Bookman Old Style" weight="700" style="normal" stretch="normal" glyphs="/usr/share/fonts/msttcore/bookosb.ttf"/>
...
But the fonts do not correspond with the one I see when I print the list from TextClip.list + I didn't find anything on how to manually add a font there so I gave up on this lead.
If anyone has some ideas on what I'm doing wrong, it would be greatly appreciated !
