ret, frame = video_capture.read() ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 2)

Question

I want to use IP cam instead of webcam on my project which is based on tiny face detection.

video_capture = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
video_capture=VideoStream("rtsp://admin:bilge06@10.374.140.132:554").start()

Answer 1

For Python

capture= cv2.VideoCapture("rtsp://admin:bilge06@10.374.140.132:554")

if not capture:
    print("Failed")
else:
   ret, frame= capture.read()

It is in C++ You need change the code as

VideoCapture capture;
Mat ImageMat;
bool op = capture.open("rtsp://admin:bilge06@10.374.140.132:554");
if(op)
{
    capture >> ImageMat;
}

It will read from the stream. To check whether stream is working or not you can use VLC player and set the IP in network stream and it will verify it
