How to display a videostream in the PyQt GUI by a efficient way

Hello, everyone£¬ : )

I'm a beginner of pyqt, and recently I'm having a problem with it. I
hope someone could help me.

As required, I need to get a videostream from a camera, and process
every frame to add some information on it, and then display the frame
in a PyQt GUI.
But I don't know how to display the videostream in the PyQt GUI by a
efficient way.

Currently, I do these like this:
1. Get the videostream by the videocapture module (a useful module
written by Markus Gritsch) in the format of PIL images;
2. Process every PIL image and add the information;
3. Convert every PIL image to QPixmap and display it using
QLabel.setPixma p.
I think it is a very inefficient way, but I don't known how to display
the videostream in other ways, so I need your help, Thanks!

PS:I do it with Windows XP, Python 2.5.1, PyQt4.3.0

Dear All, I am fairly new to Python. I have found it an easy language to learn and a very usefull one for many tasks. Currently I am working on a python project that involves a GUI and it was suggested that PyQt is the best way to design that GUI. However since PyQt is rather new, I have not found much documentation on it, or examples in it. The only useful tutorial/book I have found is at www.opendocspublishing.com/pyqt/ but it is...

I am kind of new to Python, and after trying and using wxPython, I found it kind of lacking in easy-to-read documentation, speed at loading, and GUI response-time. So I am looking for an another GUI toolkit that is cross-platform for Python, and am leaning toward PyQt (PyGTK is kind of dull looking in comparison). Unfortunately, although TrollTech says Qt is cross-platform, its license strategy has me a bit confused. So here is to...

OK, so I'm at the stage where I want to make a choice between wxPython and PyQt. Currently I'm using wxPython mainly due to the fact that it has GPL Linux and Windows versions. I prefer Qt to wxWindows, but am confused with all the Windows licensing issues. For the moment this is just for my own tinkering and utility apps, but

I'm using a QTimer object to expire certain password protected GUI options in my application after 2 minutes. Currently, the timer is reset each time the user presses the 'OK' button. This is not ideal. A user may spend 2 minutes entering data into the GUI before pressing OK in which case the timer expires before they have pressed OK. I want the timer to timeout after 2 minutes of keyboard inactivity (i.e. no events sent) instead of 2...

Hi, I wanted to run a program that is written in PyQt on my mac, and went over to Riverbank to get PyQ 3.13 and SIP 4.1.1 sources. I followed the installation guide except for the compiling python as Macosx already has python. I had no problem with compiling SIP and also no problem with compiling PyQt nor did I have any error message during make install.

After quite a while of wxPython I'm getting back into PyQt, mainly due to the announcement by Trolltech that they will make a GPL version of Qt4 for Windows (and Phil-T said he will make a PyQt to go with it eventually!) I'm currently using PyQt 3.12 that comes with the BlackAdder demo, it seems to work fine with Python 2.3.5 except that it doesn't support the WinXP look'n'feel, the QStyle "WindowsXP" isn't included, and using a...

I've narrowed down my toolkit selection for my project to wxPython and pyQt, and now i'd like to hear any opinions, war stories, peeves, etc, about them, particularly from anyone who's used _both_toolkits_. I'm only mildly interested in the IDEs and UI designers for each, as i want to do as much as i can in just Xemacs and xterm. Feel free to rant, rave, pontificate, whatever. t.i.a., E

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
