Pyinstaller and moviepy, ffmpeg works from the terminal, but not from finder

I am writing python using pyinstaller 2.1 on OSX Mavericks. I have done this successfully in the past, but this is my first package that uses coppy and ffmpeg. I use the following import:

from moviepy.video.io import ffmpeg_reader

Without this line in the code, everything works fine, and I can run my last package from its icon in finder. When importing film strip, it will work if I start from the terminal as follows:

open ./myapp.app

but it will not open if I click on the icon from finder (it opens quickly and crashes). I assume this has something to do with paths or environment variables that are set in the terminal but not wrap into my packaged application. I tried various hidden imports in pyinstaller for video games and its dependencies, but nothing works. --debug mode did not provide much information to track it. Any other ideas?

Thank!

There are several problems with the pypypy and pyinstaller software.

First try to write the error to a text file

try:
    from moviepy.video.io import ffmpeg_reader
except Exception as e:
    with open('/absolute/path/to/error.txt',mode="w+") as f:
        f.write(str(e))

1) You may need to modify these two files to remove the "exec" import statements

moviepy//FX//__ init__.py, moviepy//FX//__ __ INIT.

2) , imageio.plugins.ffmpeg.download(), ffmpeg , .
