ImportError: cannot import name 'FFProbe'

I can't get the ffprobe package to work in Python 3.6. I installed it using pip, but when I type import ffprobe it says

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "C:\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages\ffprobe\__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
  from ffprobe import FFProbe
ImportError: cannot import name 'FFProbe'

  • The __init__.py file contains just the single line from ffprobe import FFProbe.

  • sys.path includes 'C:\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages', which is where the ffprobe directory is located.

  • Installing and importing the package works in Python 2.7 with no problems. But I would like to use it in Python 3, even if that means making manual changes to the .py files. (There is no documentation that says the package only works in Python 2.)

Can anyone help?

Use this ffprobe package instead for Python3. Works for me: pip install ffprobe-python
