# Define the codec and create VideoWriter object fourcc = cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*'XVID')
out = cv2.VideoWriter('output.avi',fourcc, 20.0, (640,480))
while(cap.isOpened()):
ret, frame = cap.read()
if ret==True:
frame = cv2.flip(frame,0)
# write the flipped frame
out.write(frame)
cv2.imshow('frame',frame)
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'): break
else: break

cap.release()
out.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
It records properly using python but when I convert it using pyinstaller the video produces an output.avi without content (0 byte). I also tried cx_freeze but the result is the same.
