Hi I downloaded the OpenCV 2.4.6, extracted in C:\openCV246. I want to use visual studio 2012. using the tutorial in the youtube link : http://youtu.be/cgo0UitHfp8

first I am really confused, when I can call libraries after extraction of opencv.exe file why should I suffer to build the opencv using cmake?!

then I added several libraries as instructed in the tutorial to simply capture video from my laptop camera. `#include<opencv\cv.h>

include<opencv\highgui.h>

using namespace cv;

int main() { Mat img; VideoCapture cap; cap.open(0); namedWindow("window",1); while(1) { cap>>img; imshow("window",img); waitKey(33);
}

return 0;

}`

but when it reaches the imshow("window", img); it returns an unhandled exception whivh I don't understand!

I appreciate any help to figure out these. regards
