OpenCV2.2 with Visual Studio 2008
I am very new to OpenCV. I downloaded and installed Open CV according to the instructions in the link https://rangadabarera.wordpress.com/o... . My requirement is to create a video library that can be used to replace the existing video library that uses Video For Windows(VFW). I am trying to write a sample code to open and read an avi file. I added the following libraries "opencv_core220.lib opencv_highgui220.lib opencv_video220.lib opencv_ffmpeg220.lib". The code i have written looks like as follows
#include <iostream>
#include "opencv2/opencv.hpp"
#include "opencv2/highgui/highgui_c.h"
#include "opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp"
using namespace std;
using namespace cv;
int main()
{
string filename ("C:\\ADAS_AHBC_201046_002.avi") ;
VideoCapture input;
bool status = input.open( filename );
if (!input.isOpened()) return 0;
int frameCount = input.get(CV_CAP_PROP_FRAME_COUNT);
}
But while running the code, i am getting an exception with the following text Unhandled exception at 0x00905a4d in aviread.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation. The value of the obj and referance count fields within the VideoCapture object seems to be 0
I tried another version like as follows and the output is the same
int main()
{
string filename ("C:\\ADAS_AHBC_201046_002.avi") ;
VideoCapture input = VideoCapture( filename );
//bool status = input.open( filename );
if (!input.isOpened()) return 0;
int frameCount = input.get(CV_CAP_PROP_FRAME_COUNT);
}
But when i tried to to read from a camera, it seems like not throwing any error. The code is as follows int main() { string filename ("C:\ADAS_AHBC_201046_002.avi") ;
VideoCapture input = VideoCapture( 0 );
//bool status = input.open( filename );
if (!input.isOpened()) return 0;
int frameCount = input.get(CV_CAP_PROP_FRAME_COUNT);
}
While debugging this code, my lap's camera is getting invoked. Can you please help me understand as what is wrong with what i am doing.
Thanks AJAI
Hi, I am working with release. In debug when i tried to run the application it wasnt showing any exception but the value of the obj and refcount are 0s. I tried to create the debug information in Release. When i removed the debug information, its not giving any exception. But the values is same in the Debug.
Thanks AJAI
please strictly use release libs with release build, and debug libs with debug build.
then, trying to debug a release build won't give you any valid information (the values are all bogus)
again, any chance, you can update your whole environment ? noone can reproduce your problems any more, it's all far too long ago. (and no more relevant to the devs/community)
Hi, Now i realized the issue with the file opening is not related to the version of OpenCV. The file that i was trying to open was created with a Custom Codec known as DJIP. I tried with a downloaded avi file and that was working. Now i need to know how can i open or add support to a custom codec generated video file. I read somewhere that the Videos are open using ffmpeg.
Thanks AJAI
