Unsolved Is there a way to manipulate Qmediaplayer frames and display? Or Draw on it with a transparent widget which will not affect the video?

[codersmurf]

Hello, I have a desktop application on ubuntu which has a qmediaplayer. I am working with pyqt5.
I am trying to manipulate frames of the video and show as an another video in real time. I have tried to use OpenCV but i was not able find a way to use those frames. So, I started to look other options and i have tried to draw on qmediaplayer but i couldn't do it properly. The pixmap was overriding the videoplayer element so i was not able to play video.

here is the code snippet from this attempt:

        ###painter
      
        # convert image file into pixmap
        self.pixmap_image = QtGui.QPixmap("Empty.png")

        # create painter instance with pixmap
        self.painterInstance = QtGui.QPainter(self.pixmap_image)

        # set rectangle color and thickness
        self.penRectangle = QtGui.QPen(QtCore.Qt.red)
        self.penRectangle.setWidth(3)

        # draw rectangle on painter
        self.painterInstance.setPen(self.penRectangle)
        self.painterInstance.drawRect(10,10,10,10)

        self.label_imageDisplay = QLabel()
        # set pixmap onto the label widget
        self.label_imageDisplay.setPixmap(self.pixmap_image)
        self.label_imageDisplay.setAutoFillBackground(Qt.transparent)
        #self.label_imageDisplay.show()

        self.grid.addWidget(self.vidWidget, 1, 0, 12, 15 )  
#vidWidget is the widget which has the control widgets and mediaplayer
        self.grid.addWidget(self.label_imageDisplay, 1, 0, 5, 5 )

a screenshot of it (i changed the size so you can see what is happening)

i tried to make it transparent but it didn't work out it was showing background of the window not the mediaplayer.

So, I need your help.

• Is there a way to draw on a transparent widget which will now affect the video?
