I’m trying to import pydub into my python program but any time I run the code it says it can’t locate where ffmpeg is. I have tried everything including putting “pip install ffmpeg-python” in command prompt, juggling around the locations of the ffmpeg and python files, changing the system environment lables in PATH (although this is not saving for some reason)
I don’t know what to do from here

My exact code from before would’ve looked like this:

import pydub
import ffmpeg
from pydub import AudioSegment
trumpet = AudioSegment.from_mp3(“C:/Users/redacted/Downloads/trumpet-e4-14829.mp3″)
pydub.playback.play(trumpet)

And I got this beautiful long error message:

Warning (from warnings module):
File “C:Users*redacted*AppDataRoamingPythonPython312site-packagespydubutils.py”, line 170
