Hi, I'm trying to write, in Python, an image on a USB drive using "imwrite" function. This is my code:

       _, img = camera.read()
       print("saved!")
       global img_counter
       img_name = "snapshot/opencv_frame_{}.png".format(img_counter)
       cv2.imwrite(img_name,img)

In this way I write an image in a folder. If I put:

  img_name = "/mnt/usbdrive/imgtest/opencv_frame_{}.png".format(img_counter)

like path (obviously after the mounting), the image is not saved on usb drive.

Any idea?

broken indentation in the code above. (or -- what happens, if Camera.flags<=0 ?)

  • Does img contain data in a 3 channel color format? If not, you'll need to convert the color format
  • Does img_counter have integer data in it from elsewhere in your program? if not, it needs to be initialized
  • Does the program/user have permissions to
    • access each element in the directory path /mnt/usbdrive/imgtest?
    • write the folder /mnt/usbdrive/imgtest?
    • create/write a file in /mnt/usbdribe/imgtest/<img_name>?
