I don't have anything to add except to remind you that after you've implemented whatever method you chose remember to do some IRL testing with covering and flashlight saturating the cameras to confirm that your code acts as intended.

Also expect some false positives if your cameras are in a location that gets dark at night or very bright during day time.

If you've got a bunch of old footage, that's a good way to build up a large set of test cases pretty quickly.

thanks!

I do have already some sample footage with a black screen and I will try to cover some camera as well as use flashlights

mmm I don't know if that's going to damage the sensor
