Simply said, if you want your OpenCV version to work with the AVT camera's you need to do the following steps, which are in line with the remark of @berak:

1) Download the AVT SDK for GigE camera's here 2) Install the complete SDK so that your system contains the pvapi drivers. 3) Download the sourcecode from the GitHub repository. 4) Build openCV from source, enabling the WITH_PVAPI functionality. This will require you to link the sdk lib and bin folder.

After this, the videocapture device will be able to detect your AVT GigE camera's.

Another way of doing so, is to manually install the GigE pvapi SDK and use the following template.
