I want to increase the default setting of saved matplotlib graphs, so I
created a file ~/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc containing the line
savefigdpi : 300
I then created a test notebook containing a single cell with the contents
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = np.array([1,2,3]
The default backend is macosx but using it leads to the error I mentioned:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./fftest.py", line 24, in
ani.save('animation.avi')
File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/animation.py",
line 615, in save
