cv::VideoCapture cap;
if (!cap.isOpened())  // check if succeeded to connect to the camera
   CV_Assert("Cam open failed");

cap.set(CV_CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH,640);
cap.set(CV_CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT,480);

then if you use OpenCV 3 just replace the last instructions with these:

cap.set(cv::CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH, valueX); // valueX = your wanted width
cap.set(cv::CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT, valueY); // valueY = your wanted heigth
