Unless the documentation was supposed to read AbstractMovieWriter? 😕 \r\n\r\n![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1300499/195736851-17ef2d03-12d0-448d-97b4-88ad9df375c0.png)\r\n\r\n\r\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/story645","@type":"Person","name":"story645"},"datePublished":"2022-10-14T00:44:17.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":2},"url":"https://github.com/24159/matplotlib/issues/24159"}
