Install Options¶

Install `vidstab` without installing OpenCV¶

If you’ve already built OpenCV with python bindings on your machine it is recommended to install vidstab without installing the pypi versions of OpenCV. The opencv-python python module can cause issues if you’ve already built OpenCV from source in your environment.

The below commands will install vidstab without OpenCV included.

From PyPi¶

pip install vidstab

From Github¶

pip install git+https://github.com/AdamSpannbauer/python_video_stab.git

Install `vidstab` & OpenCV¶

If you don’t have OpenCV installed already there are a couple options.

You can build OpenCV using one of the great online tutorials from PyImageSearch, LearnOpenCV, or OpenCV themselves. When building from source you have more options (e.g. platform optimization), but more responsibility. Once installed you can use the pip install command shown above.
You can install a pre-built distribution of OpenCV from pypi as a dependency for vidstab (see commands below)

The below commands will install vidstab with opencv-contrib-python as dependencies.

From PyPi¶

pip install vidstab[cv2]

From Github¶

pip install -e git+https://github.com/AdamSpannbauer/python_video_stab.git#egg=vidstab[cv2]
