Error on “python capture.py”

@SdeGeata Got the same error, did you resolve it?

[sdetweil]

@aniketdongare07 @SdeGeata the newer version of python only provide 3 version info strings. So that code needs to drop the 4th parm from the parse request

(CV_MAJOR_VER, CV_MINOR_VER, mv1) = cv2.

@sdetweil I tried to do what you said and in turn I got the following error:```
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “capture.py”, line 18, in
import lib.capture as capture
File “/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools/lib/capture.py”, line 21, in

(CV_MAJOR_VER, CV_MINOR_VER, mv1) = cv2
TypeError: ‘module’ object is not iterable

[sdetweil]

@aniketdongare07 you need the rest of the line cv2… I am on my phone, so cut/paste is a pain

(CV_MAJOR_VER, CV_MINOR_VER, mv1) = cv2.__version__.split(".")

@konradwalsh
I’m using Raspberry pi CSI camera.
How to do with it.
Please help me.

@sdetweil Hey, buddy… I’m not sure what it is you’re telling me to do here. I wrote what you sent into the terminal but it didn’t do anything. In fact, it’s treating the = sign as a syntax error… what am I doing wrong?

[sdetweil]

@ogelijah u have to edit the failing py script
and change the failing line

[OGElijah]

@sdetweil I get you! I was being an idiot and I went into the wrong script. But now I’ve reached the point where it says “no module named cv2”
