Python
1

Hello,

I am trying to open a SRT stream which should be possible according to this python - How can I capture a SRT stream? - Stack Overflow
Because opencv python use the local ffmpeg installation to open a stream. I install the static build of ffmpeg on my system but the python opencv still unable to open the SRT stream.

any idea on how to do this?

no it does not, not usually.

if you built it yourself, then it might.

if you pip install opencv-python, then not. it brings its own ffmpeg.
