Hi Karuna Tata (@starlightknown), thank you for reaching out.
Does the program run if you run it in the terminal directly? A quick search for
pygame.error: No available video devicereturns a couple of Stack Overflow questions, are they any of the answers that are relevant to your use case?starlightknown commentedon May 4, 2021
no it doesn't and yes I tried all those solutions from stackoverflow , they didn't work. One solution which was
import pygame pygame.init() pygame.display.list_modes()did something but raised another error video not initializedkimadeline commentedon May 4, 2021
If your program doesn't run in the terminal, then it isn't a problem with the extension itself, but with your program. As such, I will move your question to a discussion.
