Command line options

Synopsis

option arguments

• [-x] Use DSSTcpp instead of KCFcpp as short-term tracker. KCFcpp is the default short-term tracker.
• [-a <startFrameNumber>] Video starts at the startFrameNumber.
• [-b <x,y,w,h>] Initial bounding box.
• [-d <device>] Selects input device: device=(IMGS|CAM|VID|STREAM)
  IMGS: Capture from images.
  CAM: Capture from connected camera.
  VID: Capture from a video.
  STREAM: Capture from RTSP stream.
• [-f] Shows foreground.
• [-i <path>] path to the images or to the video.
• [-j <number>] Shows trajectory for the last number frames.
• [-h] Shows help.
• [-n <number>] Specifies the video device to use (defaults to 0). Useful to select a different camera when multiple cameras are connected.
• [-p path] Prints results into the file path.
• [-s] If set, user can select initial bounding box.
• [-t <theta>] Threshold for determining positive results.
• [-z <lastFrameNumber>] Video ends at the lastFrameNumber. If lastFrameNumber is 0 or the option argument isn't specified means all frames are taken.
