This is an important issue to me, that I'm struggling to find a good answer to.

I have been trying to deploy an app on Digital Ocean; I have installed the necessary packages but I keep getting an error from the videohash library: videohash.exceptions.FFmpegNotFound I have tried adding the ffmpeg package directory to PATH by running:

export PATH="$PATH:/workspace/web/.heroku/python/lib/python3.10/site-packages/ffmpeg"

I also tried adding it as an environment variable at app and component level and adding the export command to ./bashrc but nothing I do seems to work. Is there another way I could try to solve this issue?

Can you setting a variable in ipython console

import os, os.environ['PATH']+=':/workspace/web/.heroku/python/lib/python3.10/site-packages/ffmpeg'

in Tools → Preference → iPython console → Startup → Lines.

I suppose a similar solution can be applied if Python console is being used instead of iPython console.
