PyPI·Infrastructure

Streamcatcher is a cross-platform command-line tool that allows users to open and view RTMP and RTSP video streams, including 360-degree equirectangular video, in a compact window. It leverages OpenCV for rendering and is useful for developers and engineers who need to quickly inspect live video feeds from IP cameras, drones, or streaming servers without launching a full-featured media player.
