I'm writing a python script to screenshot every 30 seconds and save the output image with the actual date.
The problem is that the script is saving each image with each letter of the time.ctime() output (Tue Jan 3 01:30:53 2017):
T.png
u.png
e.png
...
How can i save each image output with the actual complete date ?
import pyscreenshot as ImageGrab
import time
max_prints = 10
counter = 0
timer = time.ctime()
while counter < max_prints:
for mark in timer:
im=ImageGrab.grab()
#im.show()
im=ImageGrab.grab(bbox=(10,10,500,500))
#im.show()
ImageGrab.grab_to_file(str(mark) + ".png")
time.sleep(30)
This loop may help:
while counter < max_prints:
im = ImageGrab.grab(bbox=(10, 10, 500, 500))
filename = str(dt.datetime.now()).replace(' ', 'T').split('.')[0] + ".png"
ImageGrab.grab_to_file(filename)
time.sleep(5)
Can you try with something like this ?
import pyscreenshot as ImageGrab
import time
max_prints = 10
counter = 0
while counter < max_prints:
im=ImageGrab.grab()
#im.show()
im=ImageGrab.grab(bbox=(10,10,500,500))
#im.show()
timer = time.ctime()
ImageGrab.grab_to_file(timer + ".png")
time.sleep(30)
counter += 1
If you want to you could have filenames that will be easier to handle afterward by changing these lines:
timer = time.ctime()
ImageGrab.grab_to_file(timer + ".png")
To this:
timer = time.ctime()
timestamp = timer.replace(' ', '_')
timestamp = timestamp.replace(':', '_')
filename = "{}.png".format(timestamp)
ImageGrab.grab_to_file(filename)
But it depends on how you want your files to be named.

I came here as I am lost.
I have a code which basically provides a preview on screen before a picture is taken. The code runs on 2 camera (it doesn't make sense I know).
Pi camera : for preview
DSLR camera : for taking the pictures
The scripts works as expected. The issue is that the PIcamera zoom is not aligned with the DSLR.
I know it is possible to get the DSLR preview on screen which would be better. However I don't know how to do it. As I am new to python, I read as much as I could. I read solution with VLC but I didn't understand the specificities. I read the gphoto2 help but got lost in the technical parts. Hence I'd highly appreciate if someone can help me out or point me to the correct direction.
The DSLR camera is a Canon EOS D60 which should be compatible for screen preview.
I attached below the code
from picamera import PiCamera
import time
from time import sleep
import logging
import sys
import gphoto2 as gp
import locale
photonr = 1
countdown = 5
FolderRaw='/home/pi/'
def TakePicture():
global rafale
try:
rafale +=1
except Exception as e:
rafale =1
camera1 = PiCamera()
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '')
logging.basicConfig(
format='%(levelname)s: %(name)s: %(message)s', level=logging.WARNING)
callback_obj = gp.check_result(gp.use_python_logging())
camera2 = gp.Camera()
camera2.init()
i = 1
while i < photonr+1:
preview = camera1.start_preview()
preview.fullscreen = True
picture_time = time.strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
global image
image = picture_time+ '_' + str(rafale) + '_' + str(i)
if i == 1 :
countdown2 = countdown +1
else :
countdown2 = 3
for counter in range(countdown2, 0, -1):
camera1.annotate_text = str(counter)
camera1.annotate_text_size = 120
sleep(1)
camera1.annotate_text = ''
print('Capturing image')
file_path = camera2.capture(gp.GP_CAPTURE_IMAGE)
print('Camera file path: {0}/{1}'.format(file_path.folder, file_path.name))
target = FolderRaw+image +'.jpg'
print('Copying image to', target)
camera_file = camera2.file_get(
file_path.folder, file_path.name, gp.GP_FILE_TYPE_NORMAL)
camera_file.save(target)
#camera.capture(FolderRaw+image +'.jpg')
camera1.stop_preview()
print ("Raw picture taken and saved on " + image )
i += 1
camera1.close()
camera2.exit()
TakePicture()
Thank you beforehand for any tips/direction/help
I have 1,440 audio files to feed into a neural network. The problem is that they are not all the same length. I used the answer posted on:
Adding silent frame to wav file using python
but it doesn't seem to work. I wanted to add a few seconds of silence to the end of my files, and then trim them to all be 5 seconds long. Can someone please help me with this?
(I also tried using pysox, but that gives me the This install of SoX cannot process .wav files. error.)
I am using Google Colab for this. The code is:
import wave, os, glob
from pydub import AudioSegment
from pydub.playback import play
path = 'drive/MyDrive/Ravdess/Sad' #This is the folder from my Google Drive which has the audio files
count = 0
for filename in glob.glob(os.path.join(path, '*.wav')):
w = wave.open(filename, 'r')
d = w.readframes(w.getnframes())
frames = w.getnframes()
rate = w.getframerate()
duration = frames/float(rate)
count+=1
print(filename, "count =", count, "duration = ", duration)
audio_in_file = filename
audio_out_file = "out.wav"
new_duration = duration
#Only append silence until time = 5 seconds.
one_sec = AudioSegment.silent(duration=2000) #duration in milliseconds
song = AudioSegment.from_wav(audio_in_file)
final_song = one_sec + song
new_frames = w.getnframes()
new_rate = w.getframerate()
new_duration = new_frames/float(rate)
final_song.export(audio_out_file, format="wav")
print(final_song, "count =", count, "new duration = ", new_duration)
w.close()
This gives the output:
drive/MyDrive/Ravdess/Sad/03-01-04-01-02-01-01.wav count = 1 duration = 3.5035
<pydub.audio_segment.AudioSegment object at 0x7fd5b7ca06a0> count = 1 new duration = 3.5035
drive/MyDrive/Ravdess/Sad/03-01-04-01-02-02-01.wav count = 2 duration = 3.370041666666667
<pydub.audio_segment.AudioSegment object at 0x7fd5b7cbc860> count = 2 new duration = 3.370041666666667
... (and so on for all the files)
Since you are already using pydub, I'd do something like this:
from pydub import AudioSegment
from pydub.playback import play
input_wav_file = "/path/to/input.wav"
output_wav_file = "/path/to/output.wav"
target_wav_time = 5 * 1000 # 5 seconds (or 5000 milliseconds)
original_segment = AudioSegment.from_wav(input_wav_file)
silence_duration = target_wav_time - len(original_segment)
silenced_segment = AudioSegment.silent(duration=silence_duration)
combined_segment = original_segment + silenced_segment
combined_segment.export(output_wav_file, format="wav")
This is my script, it takes screenshots after 5 seconds and stores it into a png file with timestamp as its name.
I want this script to run between 9am to 5pm everyday so i could get screenshot f every activity done between 9 to 5 every day.
import pyautogui
import time
for i in range(4):
# Take screensot
pic = pyautogui.screenshot()
#Name the file with data and time
ts = time.strftime("%Y%m%d-%H%M%S")
filename = "screenshot"
filename += str(ts)
filename += ".png"
# Save the image
pic.save('C:\\Users\\DELL\\Desktop\\Frankiii\{}'.format(filename))
time.sleep(5)
Here is how you could do it.
import schedule
def start():
print("{} Start the job".format(datetime.datetime.now()))
def stop():
print("{} Time's up!!!".format(datetime.datetime.now()))
sys.exit()
schedule.every().day.at("09:00").do(start)
schedule.every().day.at("17:00").do(stop)
Am trying to put a timelapse on my OpenCV code but it seems i am doing something that is not right and i don't know why i have the error.
The erorr i got is for this line: filename = f"{timelapse_img_dir}/{i}.jpg" What should i do in order not to have an error?
This is the error i have from my IDE:
File "/Users/Dropbox/OpenCV/src/timelapse.py", line 34
filename = f"{timelapse}/{i}.jpg"

I believe the format you are using is only supported on python 3.6 "Literal String Interpolation":
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0498/#raw-f-strings
filename = f"{timelapse_img_dir}/{i}.jpg"
here are 2 other options depends on what python you are using:
python 2.7:
filename = '%(timelapse_img_dir)s %(i)s' % locals()
python 3+
filename = '{timelapse_img_dir} {i}'.format(**locals())
Based on:
https://pyformat.info/
I dont know why i was not able to use the f function. I had to do another concatenation to work.
filename = timelapse_img_dir +str(i) +file_format
and for the rest i used the wild card
filetomake = image_dir + "/*.jpg"
image_list = glob.glob(filetomake)
my school has digital books, but to access those I need to go through several logins and that way it takes a long time to get to my school book. On top of that I need an internet connection to see them.
I have however found out that the books are on the publishers server as separate images (both jpg's and png's), now I'd like to download those images and combine them into a PDF file.
The problem I'm running into is that the files are not generally accessible so I need to give the script the exact URL, and I can't get it to go to the next file.
This is what I've got so far: Pastebin link

You may want to update the value of builded_link_jpg inside the loop!
