This is the first release of a trilogy that will include "The Dark MoviePy" and "The Dark MoviePy Rises". At this point I am not sure what releases are for.

So let's say this release celebrates that MoviePy is quite stable around different platforms and Python 2/3, or people stopped reporting bugs.

Major ideas for the next release:

  • Simplify MoviePy's binary dependencies installation. This could be done by using ImageIO for downloading ffmpeg.
  • Use better backends for GIF making, ImageMagick is too slow. This could also be done with ImageIO.
  • Make a file manager which maintains closed the connections to files that are not used, because file connextions take a lot of RAM. This would allow to have hundreds of VideoClips ImageClips and AudioClips open, but only a few really making a connection.

It's going to be fun !
