detect.py - images always saved

[taqpoly2]

Hello, thanks for this incredible tool.

It seems that in detect.py save_img is always set to True - the piece of code in this piece of code.below is default
Btw It would be nice to have option to switch saving images in script call like detect.py --saveimages. Thanks.

Set Dataloader

vid_path, vid_writer = None, None
if webcam:
    view_img = True
    cudnn.benchmark = True  # set True to speed up constant image size inference
    dataset = LoadStreams(source, img_size=imgsz)
else:
    save_img = True
    dataset = LoadImages(source, img_size=imgsz)

Requirements

Python 3.8 or later with all requirements.txt dependencies installed, including torch>=1.7. To install run:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Environments

YOLOv5 may be run in any of the following up-to-date verified environments (with all dependencies including CUDA/CUDNN, Python and PyTorch preinstalled):

• Google Colab Notebook with free GPU:
• Kaggle Notebook with free GPU: https://www.kaggle.com/models/ultralytics/yolov5
• Google Cloud Deep Learning VM. See GCP Quickstart Guide
• Docker Image https://hub.docker.com/r/ultralytics/yolov5. See Docker Quickstart Guide

Status

If this badge is green, all YOLOv5 GitHub Actions Continuous Integration (CI) tests are currently passing. CI tests verify correct operation of YOLOv5 training (train.py), testing (test.py), inference (detect.py) and export (export.py) on MacOS, Windows, and Ubuntu every 24 hours and on every commit.

@taqpoly2 thanks for the feedback, we will take it into consideration. The current settings are mainly to demo the inference capability, with the assumption that users will customize to their own needs as appropriate.

You might also want to see YOLOv5 PyTorch Hub inference as an alternative to detect.py, this provides much greater customizability (and images are not saved by default there):
