Steven, Thanks for looking around for me, sucks that the HDMI input on the board is not supported.. So right now what should I consider as my best option? If I need to get a dongle or a capture card supported by openCV I would do that. The problem is I need somthing that can atleast in preview mode (as I dont need any actual recording) will allow me to see, say, my moving hand infront of the camera with practically no delay on my pc monitor. I cant have the surgeon see his camera movements with delay.. it's a big NO NO.. Is there anything out in the capture card market that can fit me? I'll take any idea you might have. P.S, my open cv code add litttle to no delay, its based on marking/drawing on live video. I dont use any heavy tracking ... (more)

Hey, all. So here's my problem: I need a GUI to get a live webcam stream from openCV (or just open a video file), pass it to the Tkinter GUI window, and add some buttons and stuff to it. when I run the code and play the video, the video plays with proper FPS (same speed as just opening it with winows media player), however, the video window is small. It's very important that i get the video to full screen dimentions, perhaps a tad less so I can still see the GUI button.

If i try to resize the video for full screen, by adding self.current_image= self.current_image.resize([2560,1440],PIL.Image.ANTIALIAS), my FPS drop and video is playing very slowly.

going with self.root.attributes("-fullscreen",True) , the window just goes full screen but the video size itself is same. so that's no good either.

How can I fill the screen with the video while keeping proper FPS? is it a code error or just slow processing?

here is the code: thanks evryone
