How can i use it on video

[Ratnadeep22]

Hiii... great work

I just want to test this code on video... I have done all the this but its taking too much of time to process the single frame

[Thamizh-Sterio]

Traceback (most recent call last): File "detect.py", line 180, in im = cv2.imread(sys.argv[1]) IndexError: list index out of range

how can i got ride of this?

[Abduoit]

did anyone here use it on video ?
