Python real time screen processing

Question

I would like to process my screen in a real time.
Is there some real time OCR library for python, that I could use?
Or is there some better technology that I could use?

Answer 1

In VLC, go to Media -> Stream -> Capture Device, select Desktop and create the stream. Create a HTTP stream.

Then use OpenCV to open the stream and use something like this:

cv::VideoCapture vcap;
if(!vcap.open(videoStreamAddress)) {
    std::cout << "Error opening video stream or file" << std::endl;
    return -1;
}
cv::namedWindow("Output Window");

while (true) {
    if(!vcap.read(image)) {
        std::cout << "No frame" << std::endl;
        cv::waitKey();
    }
    //Process image here
}

Sorry it's C++ not Python but you can do the same thing in Python easily.

Disclaimer: I have not tested this myself, it is just an idea
