If you want to specify the input image, put the image path after the --input option.
You can use --savepath option to change the name of the output file to save.

$ python3 craft-pytorch.py --input IMAGE_PATH --savepath SAVE_IMAGE_PATH

If you pass 0 as an argument to VIDEO_PATH, you can use the webcam input instead of the video file.
