I'm having an issue with VideoWriter class in opencv module (version 2.4.9) for python 2.7
I'm reading a video file (MP4), performing some math transformations in each frame and writing the result as a new video (AVI), with cv2.VideoWriter.
The resulting video is being generated without any warning or error, but the last 2 columns of pixels of the video are all filled with black pixels (see the images below).
Picture 1: First frame of the original video (MP4):
Picture 2: First frame of the generated video (AVI)
Picture 3: Zoom of top-right corner of picture 2:
Picture 4: Zoom of the bottom-right corner of picture 2:
Only the last 2 pixels of the right columns in Picture 4 aren't filled with black. All the othem pixels of the columns are filled with RGB=(0,0,0)
My code is this:
cap = cv2.VideoCapture('C:\\inputVideo.mp4')
wrt = cv2.VideoWriter('C:\\outputVideo.avi',cv2.cv.CV_FOURCC('X','V','I','D'),\
2,(300,530))
while cap.get(1)<5: #catching only the first 5 frames of the video
flag, img = cap.read()
#I didn't put here the math transformations,
#because the problem occurs also without the math part.
#I'll generate a picture here for testing my code
if cap.get(1)==1:
cv2.imwrite('C:\\input.png', img) #Picture 1, attached above
wrt.write(aux)
cap.release()
wrt.release()
With the following procedure I can generate "Picture 2":
cap=cv2.VideoCapture('C:\\outputVideo.avi')
flag, img = cap.read()
cv2.imwrite('C:\\output.png', img)
Anyone here have ever seen that bug? Is that a problem with the opencv library or with the codecs that I used? I don't have any possible idea of what can it be...
