I'm trying to execute a call to an unofficial Instagram API python library, after several errors for dependencies needed I fixed, I'm stuck at this one.

raise NeedDownloadError('Need ffmpeg exe. '
NeedDownloadError: Need ffmpeg exe. You can download it by calling:
imageio.plugins.ffmpeg.download()
Those final two lines in the error messages provide a valuable clue, and I installed moviepy only today so I remember a remedy.
NeedDownloadError: Need ffmpeg exe. You can download it by calling:
imageio.plugins.ffmpeg.download()
(sudo) pip install imageio
, if necessary.import imageio
and then imageio.plugins.ffmpeg.download()
.
