XCB Error wile Displaying

[Dhanush Eswar]

Hi all,

I am trying to display images and videos on RPI using SSH, I have written Python program with the help of opencv, I am getting no error If I run the python program on RPI manually and works fine, When I try to run the python file through the SSH I am getting this error as follows,

qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/cv2/qt/plugins" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.Available platform plugins are: xcb.Aborted (core dumped)

Help me with some ideas...

Regards,

Dhanush

When you SSH, you don't have a graphical display instance to use. This post might lead you in the right direction: https://askubuntu.com/questions/47642/how-to-start-a-gui-software-on-a-remote-linux-pc-via-ssh#47658

oli@bert:~$ ssh tim
oli@tim:~$ export DISPLAY=:0
oli@tim:~$ firefox

Hi Jeremiah Bess,

Thanks for the Answer but I have tried that anyhow and the same error persists, will set the os from the beginning.
