python opencv录制视频,如何在OpenCV2 python中查看视频流

I'm starting to play with Opencv. I am using the python bindings for opencv2 on Linux. I wrote a quick test program but it seems to hang indefinitely.

import cv2

weblink = "http://continuous-video-stream-here"

cv2.namedWindow("video")

vid = cv2.VideoCapture(weblink)

key = -1

while (key < 0):

success, img = vid.read()

cv2.imshow("video", img)

But it hangs on this output:

(video:14388): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_caps_unref: assertion `caps != NULL' failed

I have also tried reading from urllib2:

vid = cv2.VideoCapture(urllib2.urlopen(weblink).read())

But that didn't work either.

I am using Opencv 2.4.2, ffmpeg-0.11.2

EDIT: The video feed uses realplayer to display the video over http in the browser.

Code safely and test the return of the method:

vid = cv2.VideoCapture(weblink)

if not vid:

print("!!! Failed VideoCapture: invalid parameter!")

The address you are using is probably not supported by OpenCV.

The same practice should be used whenever a method can fail:

while (key < 0):

success, img = vid.read()

if not img:

print("!!! Failed vid.read()")

break

cv2.imshow("video", img)
