in some cases for some photos there are no faces detected during face encoding. is there a better way to make the face encoring without using a pre-captured photo. maybe use a video are a tool that create an save a face encoding through the real time camera

Well you can use a photo in which face is detected. You can use face haar_cascade file with opencv to capture images whenever a face is detected and later use those images for encoding.

Just saying sometimes it doesn't detect a face without an example isn't really helpful. There are various reasons a face might be missed but it's impossible to know which without seeing a photo that didn't work.

You can use the jitter parameter in order to increase the distortion of the photos.
