Hello!

I'm trying to use OpenCV for face recognition. For some reason the dataset creation part crashes after a while. Sometimes a few images can be captured, but it never works fully. Can anyone please see any issues in this code? I have stared at it for so long. I'm very thankful for any help!

print(pathname)

No error messages are produced. Can anyone please see any issues in this code? I have stared at it for so long. I'm very thankful for any help!
