If you are running a Python project and see an error “FFMPEG is not installed,” here is a quick fix. First things first: try the simple commands and see if they work. Run
pip install ffmpeg or, if you are using Anaconda, conda install ffmpeg. If neither of these works, you will have to install FFMPEG manually.

To manually install FFMPEG, go to Google and search for “FFMPEG Download,” then download the FFMPEG ZIP file to your computer. Extract it and rename the folder to ffmpeg, then either move it into your project folder (if you only want to test FFMPEG for that project) or onto your C: drive (to use across multiple environments). Next, open the bin folder inside ffmpeg, copy the full path, and open Environment Variables from the Start menu. Under System Variables, highlight Path, click Edit, then New, and paste the path you copied. Click OK to save.

Now try again to see if the error is gone. If you are using Anaconda Prompt, you will need to close and reopen the application. Hope this was useful.

Thank you very much!
