ImportError: cannot import name 'Video'

See original GitHub issue

When I try to import ipyvolume as ipv, this is what I get:

Same happens if I type jupyter nbextension enable --py --sys-prefix ipyvolume on terminal. Any advice please?

Odd, I see:

Requirement already satisfied, skipping upgrade: ipywidgets>=7.4.0 in ./.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages (from ipywebrtc==0.4.1) (7.4.2)

but what you import is not that version, you could check ipywidgets.__file__ to see which it is picking up.

I would advise you not to install with pip --user <name> anymore, avoid the use of PYTHONPATH, mv or rm your ~/.local directory and use ana/mini conda or virtualenv, that will give less of these issues.
