I'm having a similar issue to this thread, but the difference is that I'm not attempting to change folders at all, it still should be able to read the file. I don’t see why there’s an issue with it? for x in newfiles: x = x + ".mp4" xstr = x xstr2 = xstr.replace(".mp4", "") x = VideoFileClip(x) x = x.resize(width=720) durationsecs = x.duration fullclip = CompositeVideoClip([bgnosnd.set_position((0,0)).set_end(durationsecs), x.set_position((0,20))], size=(720, 1080)) textclip = TextClip(f"Part {xstr2}", font="fjalla-one.ttf",fontsize=125, color="white", stroke_color="black", stroke_width=5) textclip = textclip.set_pos('center').set_duration(durationsecs) fullclip = CompositeVideoClip([fullclip, textclip]) fullclip = fullclip.volumex(per) fullclip = vfx.make_loopable(fullclip, 0.5) fullclip.write_videofile(f"final{xstr}") The code processes both input videos properly, and does spit out a working output file before throwing the error, but I'm still unsure how to fix the error. It seemed to work before on a testing file, but I have made a couple changes since then. One thing to note is that my current file was converted from an mkv file to an mp4 file with this code: convert = VideoFileClip(filename) convert.write_videofile(f"converted_{filename2}.mp4", codec="libx264",audio_codec="aac") I've tried to do this with multiple files that are converted with the same code, but none seem to work. Another thing to note is that my python and pip only work with "pip3" and "python3", and not normally - I was unable to install imagemagick through pip3, but i got it to work with brew Full error:

That might mean that the file is corrupted. That may also mean that you are using a deprecated version of FFMPEG. On Ubuntu/Debian for instance the version in the repos is deprecated. Please update to a recent version from the website. If you have any questions with what part of my code means what, don't hesitate to ask!
