如何使用openCV python阅读Youtube直播流?

标签: python opencv youtube stream

我想从youtube读取一个实时流来执行一些基本的CV事情,可能我们必须以某种方式删除youtube URL以将其转换为openCV可读的格式,如:?

cap = cv2.VideoCapture('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9OBhtLA9Ig')

有人做过吗?

我相信你现在已经知道了答案,但我会回答其他人搜索同一主题。你可以使用Pafy来做到这一点。首先你需要 import pafy

然后添加此

url = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9OBhtLA9Ig"
video = pafy.new(url)
best = video.getbest(preftype="mp4")

capture = cv2.VideoCapture()
capture.open(best.url)

那应该是它。

在 100-120 帧之后,@lee hannigan 的回答让我无法在 youtube 上直播。

我与 Pafy 制定了一种方法,只需抓取 x 帧数并将它们拼接在一起。不过,这最终导致将这些块拼接在一起的效果不佳,并给出了断断续续的结果。 Pafy 可能不是为直播而设计的,我找不到将帧无缝拼接在一起的方法。

最终有效的内容如下,根据guttentag_liu 在this post 上的回答略有修改。它需要更多的包,而且很长,但有效。因为文件是实时的,所以它需要分块,因此保存到一个临时文件中。您可能可以对每个块进行 openCV 工作,然后最后保存到文件中,而不是重新打开。
