PyPI Package Disguised as Instagram Growth Tool Harvests User Credentials
A deceptive PyPI package posing as an Instagram growth tool collects user credentials and sends them to third-party bot services.
FFmpeg Input Library is a small library aimed at receiving raw or decoded (RGB) frames from FFmpeg into a python program. You can pass to ffmpeg required arguments and url and get the frames like opencv does. The library provides the direct access to the ffmpeg library without the launching of the ffmpeg binary. The frames are in raw binary format and must be processed separately.
pip install ffmpeg-input
# certain python version (decreases build time)
