transform_video isn't cooperating with MoviePy

[PPiinngg]

since i have an affinity for only making things worse by trying to fix them i thought i'd post this error here to see if any of you folks could help me get this working

D:\fast-style-transfer-master>python transform_video.py --checkpoint checkpoint/inkify --in-path input --out-path out --device /cpu:0 Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Max\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\moviepy\video\io\ffmpeg_reader.py", line 277, in ffmpeg_parse_infos line = [l for l in lines if keyword in l][index] IndexError: list index out of range

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Here are the file infos returned by ffmpeg:

considering that half the errors are to do with moviepy i'd assume that this program is designed to work with an older version and the one i have installed has a few changes but that's as far as i can go into figuring out what's wrong without my brain exploding

[JEF1056]

All the way at the end, it states that permission was denied. Perhaps try to specify the file in the input folder, and write a full path?
