@danningson this could be because of the need for the python virtual environment not being set up
I know he made a bunch of changes recently which require the venv…

@sdetweil Hi Sam - first, thank you for your time and expertise. I really do appreciate all the help. looks like you were right. I went back and ran the script again and noticed the environment additions. After running those I was able to run the encode.py program and it added several of the new pics i took. To further my troublshooting i added several classes as unknow. My thought was if the camera is seeing me but not recognizing me at least those moduels would show up and tell me the program was working correctly. Unfortunatly I got no reaction when looking into the camera either known or unknown. the camera is still wotking with the libcamera-still -o test.jpg so I am not sure why the program is failing to pic up anything. Again, thanks for your help

@danningson is mm running under that venv?
-
@sdetweil I’m not sure. I typed in env and got back a whole bunch of stuff i don’t understand
-
@danningson usually the terminal window prompt has the active python venv name prepended
(base) here on my system
(base) sam@sams:~/MagicMirror$
-
@sdetweil Ah, this pi is only intended for the mirror so i simply named it mm
mm@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ -
@sdetweil I just ran the install script again and now i get this:
(python-facereco) mm@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ -
@danningson ok, and NOW does facereco work?
-
@sdetweil sorry, I should have included that in my response. No sadley I get no recognition or even an unknown face. The items with classes do not show, which is correct but it is as if the cammera is not seeing anything but I know it works.

@sdetweil I came up with the briliant ide a to reboot the pi and now the (python-facereco) is gone as well. and yes, still no reaction from the camera
