Hi all! I need your help regarding the following code. My goal is to read and show the video with a resolution modification.


import cv2
 cap = cv2.VideoCapture("C:/Users/user/Desktop/Foot_Detection/ball_tracking_example.mp4")
 def rescale_frame(frame, percent=30):
    width = int(frame.shape[1] * percent/ 100)
    height = int(frame.shape[0] * percent/ 100)
    dim = (width, height)
    return cv2.resize(frame, dim, interpolation =cv2.INTER_AREA)
 if (cap.isOpened() == False):
    print("Error opening video stream or file")
 while (cap.isOpened()):
    # Capture frame-by-frame
    ret, frame = cap.read()
 frame = rescale_frame(frame, percent=30)
    if ret == True:
 cv2.imshow('Frame', frame)
 if cv2.waitKey(25) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
            break
 else:
        break
 cap.release()
 cv2.destroyAllWindows()

After executing the above code, the video displayed on my screen till the end. However, I have got the following error:


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Users/user/Desktop/Foot_Detection/FootDetection.py", line 24, in <module>
    frame = rescale_frame(frame, percent=30)
  File "C:/Users/user/Desktop/Foot_Detection/FootDetection.py", line 10, in rescale_frame
    width = int(frame.shape[1] * percent/ 100)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'shape'

I tried to install the codec for mp4 and to the video path is correct. Could you please assist me in this matter? Thank you in advance.

checking the ret value is mandatory, since it will tell you, when the movie's over.

Nope, berak. What does the error tell you? AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'shape'

again, the last frame will be empty (None)

(and this is one of the main differences between capturing from a webcam or a video file, please go and check)

berak ( 2019-02-26 08:11:57 -0600 )edit

Nope. The frame is not empty. I already tested it.. There are no differences between webcam and file.

@Abdu, can you take another look at the code in your question, and try to repair the broken formatting ?

(whitespace matters in python ...)

I was able to solve the problem. I just need to figure out how to loop:


import numpy as np
import cv2
cap = cv2.VideoCapture('C:\Sample3.mp4')

def rescale_frame(frame, percent=30):

    width = int(frame.shape[1] * percent/ 100)
    height = int(frame.shape[0] * percent/ 100)
    dim = (width, height)
    return cv2.resize(frame, dim, interpolation =cv2.INTER_AREA)

while True:
    ret ,frame = cap.read()
    if type(frame) == type(None):
        break
    frame25 = rescale_frame(frame, percent=25)
    cv2.imshow('frame25',frame25)
    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
        break
cap.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

what's about

if not ret:
    break

instead of

if type(frame) == type(None):
    break

and you don't check if video file is opened :

if not cap.isOpened():
    print("Cannot open video file")
    exit()

I am using OpenCV 4.0.1, using raspberry pi 3. Do not put outside of while condition block. And do not used this else: break. Because it will disappeared window. The correct code like this:

import cv2

cap = cv2.VideoCapture("C:/Users/user/Desktop/Foot_Detection/ball_tracking_example.mp4")
def rescale_frame(frame, percent=30):
    width = int(frame.shape[1] * percent/ 100)
    height = int(frame.shape[0] * percent/ 100)
    dim = (width, height)
    return cv2.resize(frame, dim, interpolation =cv2.INTER_AREA)
if (cap.isOpened() == False):
    print("Error opening video stream or file")
while (cap.isOpened()):
    # Capture frame-by-frame
    ret, frame = cap.read()
    frame = rescale_frame(frame, percent=30)
    if ret == True:
        cv2.imshow('Frame', frame)
        if cv2.waitKey(25) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
            break


cap.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

Good tutorial to learn. tutorial

supra56 ( 2019-02-26 07:39:04 -0600 )edit

please check ret* **before** callingrescale_frame()`

(else you run into the same problem as the original question (and nothing is resolved))

berak ( 2019-02-26 08:13:22 -0600 )edit

NOPE! Everything outside of while condition block.

supra56 ( 2019-02-26 08:47:09 -0600 )edit

@supra56 your link is not up to date. Good link it's here You must check ret valeur in cap.read()

LBerger ( 2019-02-26 09:43:29 -0600 )edit

Thank you for your answers. @supra56 your code shows me the same error.

Abdu ( 2019-02-26 11:01:07 -0600 )edit

@Abdu. Are you running on python 2 or python 3?

supra56 ( 2019-02-26 12:54:12 -0600 )edit

@supra56 Python 3.7

Abdu ( 2019-02-27 03:31:56 -0600 )edit

Did you try link from @LBerger? Wondering, what's your opencv version?

supra56 ( 2019-02-27 03:45:01 -0600 )edit

Yes, I tried the code in the link of @LBerger, the error persists.
