I am trying to get EasyOCR to output the "readtext" result, but the script always stops/crashes at "readtext" i.e it doesn't execute the following print("Check-2"). There is no error, so I do not what exaclty is causing the issue. Only the following exit code "3221225501". This StackOverflow says it has to do something with AVX compatibility.

My Processor: AMD FX-6300 Compatibility

I have tried installing different versions/combinations of opencv-python and easyocr with no success.

CODE:

import easyocr
import cv2

IMAGE_PATH = 'D:/OCR/ocr/try1.jpg'

reader = easyocr.Reader(['en'])
print("Check-1")
result = reader.readtext(IMAGE_PATH,paragraph="False")
print("Check-2")
print(result)

OUTPUT:

[Running] python -u "d:\OCR\ocr\test.py"
CUDA not available - defaulting to CPU. Note: This module is much faster with a GPU.
Check-1

I'm running into the same issue. have you ever found a fix?

[Sniper199999]

I think it was related to my processor not supporting certain AVX version. What CPU do you have in your system? Check if the AVX compatibility is there for your PC. By the way, I was not able to get this working on my FX6300 :(

Ah thanks, that's probably it for me too, I'm running on the Pentium Silver N6000, and I don't think that supports AVX :(
Thanks for the response!
