import cv2 cap = cv2.VideoCapture('m.avi') print cap.grab()

this code always returns a False value but when opening the video file which was captured by the webcam using opencv code, it returns True

if you want the to watch the video. you should read each frame first. then using imshow() video will be opened. like below..... while True: ret, img = cap.read() cv2.imshow('some',img) if 0xFF & cv2.waitKey(5) == 27: break
