Cannot get CompositeVideoClip to work - TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable

I get the error "TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable" when I try to add a TextClip to a Video Clip.

For my application I need to extract a short section of video and then sometimes join it to another short section of video. Then finally I want to add a textclip on top of the entire video.

I was also getting the issue 863, but removing the audio (which luckily I don't need) resolved that. Although I have found that running the same code with the same video source files this issue comes and goes.

I am doing my testing with two video clips shot on the same camera, with same resolution etc.

Running on Windows 10, I have tried Python 3.11 and 3.8.10

I have also played around with text on top of image files using moviepy and have no problems getting that to work correctly.

If I uncomment either of the last two lines in the code below I get the following error. The reference to "JunkYard" below is just a pycharm project that I try things out in. Saves messing up my actual project code.
