object has no attribute 'save' about rtsp

ahh I see. I should probably put that into the README. It was more a "minimal working example" than to be copy and pasted into a script.

Hi @yaba ,

Can you try to see what is being returned from that read() call?

e.g. im = rclient.read(); print(type(im))

Connected to video source rtsp://xxx:[email protected]/.

EDIT: Forgot to add that I'm testing on Windows, let me check on Linux also.

Unless there's been a change to OpenCV I don't know yet, it seems like an RTSP or OpenCV issue.

For some reason, no image is being retrieved at all.

What does it say when you use verbose=True while making the client?

[yaba]

I'm using it. On Linux output is basically the same:

Connected to video source rtsp://xx:[email protected]/.
<class 'NoneType'>
FATAL: exception not rethrown
Aborted

[yaba]

Think I got it, by checking a similar issue with the error thrown on Linux.

Adding a time.sleep(3) between the rtsp.Client and client.read() fixes the issue, maybe some timeout while connecting to the camera and 'rtsp' doesn't handle it?

Nice work BTW, easier than working around cv2 :) Thanks.
