cannot connect to X server

[Stéphane Debove]

Hi there,

I tried to run this code on an online notebook, and got the error message " cannot connect to X server ".

From what I understand it's because you're calling "cv2.imshow" at some point in your code. Is there a way to save the morphed image directly without displaying anything before that?

1. --no_debug_window to disable all windows.
2. If there're multiple faces in your images, a window is always opened.

Thanks for the reply! I have only one face in my images, but I get this error now:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 72, in

File "main.py", line 14, in select_face

faces = detector(img, upsample_times)
TypeError: call(): incompatible function arguments. The following argument types are supported:

Invoked with: <dlib.fhog_object_detector object at 0x7f62e1276ea0>, None, 1

Any idea why?

Try dlib == 19.9.0

It seems I can't install this version:

ERROR: Failed building wheel for dlib

If you feel like it, I have created a copy of my notebook that you can modify as you wish: https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1HYFv6vxwvo91wSxRGdTfUhuv_VfTBNyX

It works now :)
