OpenCV webcam capture problem
I've installed OpenCV 2.2 and now I can't get webcam capture to work. It worked ok in 2.1. OpenCV detects a webcam, doesn't report any errors or warnings, but each frame is a gray image. I even tried a code sample from OpenCV wiki:
VideoCapture cap(0); // open the default camera
if(!cap.isOpened()) // check if we succeeded
return -1;
Mat edges;
namedWindow("edges",1);
for(;;)
{
Mat frame;
cap >> frame; // get a new frame from camera
cvtColor(frame, edges, CV_BGR2GRAY);
//GaussianBlur(edges, edges, Size(7,7), 1.5, 1.5);
//Canny(edges, edges, 0, 30, 3);
imshow("edges", edges);
if(waitKey(30) >= 0) break;
}
// the camera will be deinitialized automatically in VideoCapture destructor
return 0;
Did anyone run into this issue? I'm using 64bit Win7 and Visual Studio 2010.
I found the solution after a very long search.
The problem is that if doesn't have a delay between showing the frames happen this problem.
The solution is put cvWaitKey(20); in loop.
The issue was with the camera I used, MSFT LifeCam. I tried Logitech C210 and 120 and they both work fine.
Here is the Solution.
Every image frame captured is being converted into grayscale image in the first line below. Commenting and running the code alone will show an error since since you are not capturing any processed image into the edges frame, which is being displayed in imshow.
Hence comment the cvtColor line and change the second parameter in imshow to frame . This will allow you to display the colour video from the webcam.
cvtColor(frame, edges, CV_BGR2GRAY);
imshow("edges", frame);
