VIsualization images

Hi! Great job with the project. I have a question about the visualization images. Is it possible not to generate them to save some processing time? If the answer is positive how can this be done?
Thanks!

Of course,

If you take a look at the inference.run_on_video function, it takes **kwargs, which it passes to _inference_on_video function in the same module, which in turn actually does all the processing - and it has an argument save_overlay=True.

So when you are calling the run_on_video function, just pass an extra argument save_overlay=False and the overlay images are not going to be saved.

Hi! Thanks for the reply! I followed your instructions giving an extra argument when calling run_on_video function, but it's still saving the visualization mask. I also tried changing the variable save_overlay in other parts of the code and nothing happened.
Thanks for the help :)

running inference once to obtain masks

run_on_video(
imgs_in_path=imgs_in_path,
masks_in_path=masks_in_path, # Ignored
masks_out_path=p_masks_out, # Used for some frame selectors
frames_with_masks=previously_chosen_candidates,
compute_iou=False,
print_progress=print_progress,
save_overlay=False,
**kwargs
)

I will take a look into this, thank you.

But in the meantime don't feel too worried about visualizations, since they are created and saved in a separate process in the background so removing them likely won't make the runtime noticeably quicker.
