If this call came from a _pb2.py file, your generated code is out of date and must be regenerated with protoc >= 3.19.0. If you cannot immediately regenerate your protos, some other possible workarounds are:

1. Downgrade the protobuf package to 3.20.x or lower.
2. Set PROTOCOL_BUFFERS_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION=python (but this will use pure-Python parsing and will be much slower).

And this is the program I wrote:

import cv2
import mediapipe as mp
import time

cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)

while True:
    success,img=cap.read()



    cv2.imshow("Image",img)
    cv2.waitKey(1)

I faced the same issue today, I tried to run the code in google Colab in the meantime and it worked well.

CodePudding user response：

You can update the version of protobuf.

pip uninstall protobuf
pip install protobuf==3.20.1
