Guarantee continuous Mat Image

edit

Hello, I would like to ensure a continuous frame for a mat image. I tryed the solution described Here, but I get compilation errors of no candidate for operator= on Mat (in header is defined for Mat&), so there's my question, how can I allocate the continuous frame?

Best Regards!

Here is the error I get:

The code I'm using is

Mat Frame
VideoCapture VideoStream;
VideoStream.read(Frame);                            // Get Frame
if(!Frame.isContinous()) Frame=Frame.clone;
