## Known issues

There are a few known issues, due to the fact that moviepy, the library that we use to process videos, is [currently not actively maintained as of August 2023 since at least December 2022](https://github.com/Zulko/moviepy/issues/1874). Here is a list of downstream issues:
* PILLOW 10.0.0 introduced a breaking change with moviepy, and although [a fix](https://github.com/Zulko/moviepy/pull/2003) was merged upstream into moviepy, there is no pypi release. Two solutions: cap PILLOW below 10, or install moviepy from github. Since the future of moviepy is uncertain, we chose to cap PILLOW, to ensure this tool continues to work in venvs.
* On Windows, after saving the output, the following exception may arise:
```
Exception ignored in: <function FFMPEG_VideoReader.__del__ at 0x00000253011BF920>
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\33632\miniconda3\Lib\site-packages\moviepy\video\io\ffmpeg_reader.py", line 199, in __del__
self.close()
File "C:\Users\33632\miniconda3\Lib\site-packages\moviepy\video\io\ffmpeg_reader.py", line 190, in close
self.proc.terminate()
File "C:\Users\33632\miniconda3\Lib\subprocess.py", line 1671, in terminate
_winapi.TerminateProcess(self._handle, 1)
OSError: [WinError 6] Descripteur non valide
```
Again this was [fixed](https://github.com/Zulko/moviepy/pull/1296) on github but not in the latest pypi release of MoviePy. This remain unfixed, it does not prevent usage of the tool, it is just inelegant.
