OpenCV facemorpher 1.0.1 error: no image output, missing library?

Question

I'm working on a project using openCV and Python to create average faces from an image database. I installed openCV 3.0.0, CMake, and all the python packages to use this
facemorpher 1.0.1 python package

I get this command line error when I run 'python facemorpher/averager.py --images=IMFDB_final/Ali/HelloBrother/images --out=testmorph.jpg'

my directory has the IMFDB folder within 'face_morpher' folder.

dyld: Library not loaded: lib/libopencv_videostab.2.4.dylib
Referenced from:  /Users/Megan/Documents/face_morpher/facemorpher/bin/stasm_util

EDIT: i have the libopencv_videostab.3.0.dylib file within my virtual environment. would the issue be resolved by uninstalling openCV 3.0 and installing 2.4 instead?

This could help: error-when-compile-opencv-in-qt-applying-tbb – Helsie

so i would copy the missing library into facemorpher/bin/, or into /face_morpher? – Oneman

if your virtual environment OS is linux, try copying libopencv_videostab.2.4.dylib in /usr/local/lib/ If the OS is Windows, try adding a new environment variable with the variable_name = "DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH" and in the value, the absolute path to the folder containing the libopencv_videostab.2.4.dylib library.
