New to Python, help with saving image from camera
#3
I got it figured it out, and its working now! Thanks everybody for the help.

""" Importing libraries """

import cv2
import datetime
import os

""" Declaring variables """

cascPath = 'haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml'
faceCascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier(cascPath)
camera = cv2.VideoCapture('rtsp://ituser:[email protected]/mpeg4/media.amp')
path = './Images'

""" Do this while the camera is working """

while (camera.isOpened()):
    ret, frame = camera.read()
    gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
    faces = faceCascade.detectMultiScale(
        gray,
        scaleFactor=1.2,
        minNeighbors=5,
        minSize=(30, 30)
    )

    for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
        cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x + w, y + h), (0, 255, 255), 2)
        date = datetime.datetime.now()
        date = (date.strftime("%m-%d-%Y_%H%M%S"))
        jpeg = date + '.jpg'
        cv2.imwrite(os.path.join(path,jpeg), frame)

    cv2.imshow('SCA Server Room', frame)

    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
        break

""" Finally, release the capture and close windows """

camera.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
