I am trying to do some research with OpenCV and testing out some of the tutorial code for face detection I got through OpenCV website.

I am new to OpenCV but I was able to install it ( not through homebrew, put downloaded it and extracted it), MacPorts, cmake / make commands to build it out, etc... I have been able to get it running and tried some other sample stuff to make sure it was in fact working properly

With the face/eye detection sample, the video window opens but takes a bit, then hangs when the camera loads. In XCode it highlights the line face_cascade.detectMultiScale( frame_gray, faces, 1.1, 2, 0, Size(80, 80) ); (Thread 1: signal SIGABRT) and hangs. Nothing is really spit in to any console that I can see.

I haven't found much information on this, a lot of answers pointed to weird builds / installations, but for what I can tell everything built properly. I have even rebuilt with out using OpenCL, but no luck.
