If the same face is in two consecutive frames, do you pass it into the classifier twice?

Sure do. Doing that increases the quality of the classifier for that face-hash. That also helps if they show up a bit later with slightly different lighting.

I also implemented a "no more than 50 samples per matched face" to keep the size of the face-hash-db down.

and my old code's currently on gitlab, gitlab.com/crankylinuxuser . It's pretty crappy as it was a weekend hack. I need to separate the engine from the GUI, and make the GUI web accessible. There's a few more pieces to do that, but I was looking at selling it for various purposes.

Awesome. Thanks for the clarification re the 50 sample limit. And thanks for sharing the code.
