When I use your code,I find there is a error First,I modified ['-src', '--source', dest='video_source', type=int,……] to ['-src', '--source', dest='video_source', type=str,……] Then I use this command "python object_detection_multithreading.py -src E:C.mp4",but the mistake appeared. E:\test_opencv\object_detector_app-master_PB>python object_detection_multithreading.py -src E:C.mp4 warning: Error opening file (/build/opencv/modules/videoio/src/cap_ffmpeg_impl.hpp:808) warning: E:C.mp4 (/build/opencv/modules/videoio/src/cap_ffmpeg_impl.hpp:809) [INFO] elapsed time: 0.00 [INFO] elapsed time: 0.00 [INFO] elapsed time: 0.00 [INFO] elapsed time: 0.00 [INFO] elapsed time: 0.00

How to fix it?

May you modify your path of the file.

[Aki1987]

Maybe your computer can not connect to camera by python. You should check your python code if it could access your camera first. Best, Thu

I alse have the problem:anyone can help me?

# Draw a rectangle around the faces
for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
    cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)

# Display the resulting frame
cv2.imshow('Video', frame)

if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
    break

When everything is done, release the capture

video_capture.release() cv2.destroyAllWindows()

after running above code getting below error : Request to any one to help in this

i also encountered the error when i tred to show my images in my computer ,the code is as follows:

import cv2 import matplotlib.pyplot as plt extractdir = r'F:/Python exercise/Machine Learning for OpenC/pedestrians128x64' for i in range(5): filename = '%s/per0001%d.pmm' % (extractdir, i) img = cv2.imread(filename) img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB) plt.subplot(1, 5, i+1 ) plt.imshow(img) # img_rgb = cv2.cvtColor(img_bgr, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB) plt.axis('off')

the result : cv2.error: C:\projects\opencv-python\opencv\modules\imgproc\src\color.cpp:10606: error: (-215) scn == 3 || scn == 4 in function cv::cvtColor

what can i do to fix it

MR QJXX, I also face the same problem. tell me solution if that is you know
