OSError: Failed to load library
Hello, can you tell me how you installed pymediainfo and how you installed the libmediainfo?
Did you read the note here?
Without the library, this package cannot parse media files, which severely limits its functionality.
Binary wheels containing a bundled library version are provided for Windows and Mac OS X.
Packages are available for several major Linux distributions. They depend on the library most of the time and are the preferred way to use pymediainfo on Linux unless a specific version of the package is required.
just i did pip install pymediainfo
What about libmediainfo? If you're using any of the linux distributions listed here, you should install pymediainfo from the distribution's official repository.
is libmediainfo a python library .
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement libmediainfo
ERROR: No matching distribution found for libmediainfo
How to install it from https://repology.org/project/python:pymediainfo/versions
No, it is not a Python library, it is a C library on which pymediainfo relies. You need to install it with your package manager (I can't guess which one you're using but if you're running Debian, it should be apt install libmediainfo0v5 to get the library or apt install python3-pymediainfo to install pymediainfo).
ohk thankyou sir
