QImage(img.data,...) out of scope - img.data gets deleted when QImage is destroyed

img.loadFromData(img.data, len(img.data))

i get a Error when i using:

        img = QImage(img.data, width, height, step, QImage.Format_RGB888) 
        img.loadFromData(img.data, len(img.data))

AttributeError: 'QImage' object has no attribute 'data' ? Whats wrong?

The error message already told you what is wrong.
Also easy to find out that there is no data property in QImage (read its docu).
What you need is rather https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qimage.html#bits-1

But i don't understand what you are doing.
You create a QImage from another one (first line), then you call loadFromData from exact same image (second line) - what is the point?

But I copied my img.data from your img = QImage(img.data, width, height, step, QImage.Format_RGB888) . I did say "something like", you are supposed to figure it yourself....

Oh, I see, you are using the same-named local img variable for two different types of image object! Just why Python is so meh....

You are using img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB). So use a different variable name for the QImage now.

mmh so just change this?

    def cap_img(self, cap):
        ret, img = cap.read()
        img = cv2.flip(img,1)#flip cam
        img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
        height, width, channel = img.shape
        step = channel * width        
        
        img_new= QImage(img.data, width, height, step, QImage.Format_RGB888)  

        if height != HEIGHT and width != WIDTH:
            img = img.scaled(WIDTH, HEIGHT)
        
        return img

would that be enough? its not working because scaled is not found (object has no attribute 'scaled')

Don't you think there's something wrong here?

And you forgot the copy - just saying it for the third time...

Why do you think that is? You should understand what you are doing/changing, not just copy & paste.

I already told them on so that he simply should use QImage::copy() to make sure the image data is copied. But ...

sorry i just started with python and im still learning. I got this code from a friend and now i must work with it.
Can you help me how the line with Qimage::copy() must look like? Still dont know how to make it work.

Hi,

I would recommend that you do all image manipulation with OpenCV since you have the original data in it.

Then

return QImage(img.data, width, height, step, QImage.Format_RGB888).copy()

ok thank you, but what you mean with doing all the stuff with OpenCV? What kind of function in particular? I thought i was already doing everything with OpenCV?!
THank You all.

You are not doing the resizing with OpenCV.
