Look through these packages: https://pypi.org/search/?q=%27motion+detection%27
I think you'll find one that helps.
Note, if you find one, go to home page and look at last date updated, if it's over your threshold reject the package as it has been abandoned. Suggest 1 year, but 2 may be acceptable

  • what is your operating system
  • which version of python do you use
  • what is the name of the package to want to install

RE: Detection Motion Program - Larz60+ - Mar-23-2020

The highest level of python supported by this package is 3.4
you are using 3.7, so may have issues.
This is over 4 years old, i wouldn't use it myself.
however you can try downloading the wheel,
and install with pip install wheelname

Project should have instructions for installation, incl. any dependencies you need to install separately/manually.
If the project doesn't have good documentation, incl. sample examples it should be a red flag for you, for number of reasons:
  • maybe its old/abandoned/not-actively maintained and it will be more difficult for you to setup and run it
  • lack of active support/community, in case you need help
  • it will be difficult for you to use, given your lack of experience

When choosing a project also look if it offers convenient command line interface for execution, i.e. can you use it as standalone program or is it primary aimed at being used by developers. The later may/would require you to write [more] code.

Ye i doing it and i have folder with documents like in the screen up:

and now i cant do nothing with it

RE: Detection Motion Program - buran - Mar-23-2020

This looks like package is installed. Now you need to write code (your own script) that will use the installed package.
That is why I advised to check if the package in question allows for execution as standalone script

RE: Detection Motion Program - Adek1243 - Mar-23-2020

dvr scan
