Access RTSP stream with OpenCV 4.1.0-openvino

[Hassan__Naufil]

Hi,

I'm using openvino toolkit for optimizing my net for Intel platform. 

I have to setup environment for OpenVino using 'setupvars.bat' file. After environment setup the opencv version is '4.1.0-openvino'.

When I try to access rtsp stream using command

[  cv2.VideoCapture('rtsp://username:password@1.1.1.10/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0')  ]  , it gives me False flag and None frame is returned.

I can access this rtsp stream from opencv 3.4.5 with same RTSP URL.

Please help me solve it.

Thankyou

Hi Nassan,

After OpenVINO installation, you also need to download the opencv_ffmpeg_64.dll to open streaming.

For example, go to "C:\Program Files (x86)\IntelSWTools\openvino\opencv", you can run the ffmpeg-download.ps1 in Windows PowerShell to download the opencv_ffmpeg_64.dll.

Hope this information is helpful:)
