Cv2.videocapture Only Return "port Missing In Uri"

First of all, thank you for your attention. I'm trying to stream with opencv and ip camera, but it only returns '[tcp @ 000001d5fce13580] Port missing in uri'. I have already teste

Solution 1:

RESOLVED

The problem was with my password, for some reason opencv's VideoCapture gets confused when the password contains "#". As I tested it in javacv and VLC and it worked, I had not tested it with another password and wasted a lot of time with it :( But now that I found out I changed the password and it already worked. I hope it helps those who have the same problem to be aware of special password characters .

Solution 2:

If your password contains characters like !"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^_{|}~, then the problem may be with cv2.VideoCapture() of OpenCV library.

You may try to use imutils library to solve this problem. That works for me.

from imutils.video import VideoStream
cap = VideoStream(video_src).start()

So your code might look like this:

import numpy as np
import cv2
from imutils.video import VideoStream

defrunCam():
    print(cv2.getBuildInformation())
    video_src = "rtsp://admin:myPWCam@192.168.1.223:554/Streaming/channels/1/"
    cap = VideoStream(video_src).start()

    whileTrue:
        frame = cap.read()
        try:
            cv2.resizeWindow('Stream IP Camera OpenCV', 120300, 800)
            cv2.imshow('Stream IP Camera OpenCV', frame)
        except Exception as ex:
            template = "An exception of type {0} occurred. Arguments:\n{1!r}"
            message = template.format(type(ex).__name__, ex.args)
            print(message)
            breakif cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
            break

    cap.release()
    cv2.destroyAllWindows()

runCam()
