Python3.7

numpy 1.16.3

PIL 6.0.0

sounddevice 0.3.14

cv2 4.1.0

moviepy 1.0.0

(There are some bugs in moviepy=1.0.1, get more information from Zulko/moviepy#938)

Just like

cd Server
python3 Server.py --host="0.0.0.0" --port=554 --dir="../../movies/"

You can also put a json file called ‘category.json’ in dir, so that the server can search videos by category. ‘category.json’ just likes:

{
	"category1": ["filename1", "filename2", ...],
	"category2": ["filename3", ...],
}

By the way, it’s very slow to start the server. Please wait until ‘listening ... ’ and ‘Search engine listening ...’ are BOTH printed on the console.

cd Client
python3 Client.py --host="127.0.0.1" --port=554

The port must be the same with the server. Please wait until the video list are shown in the right of the window.
