lkdemo.cpp crashing upon cornerSubPix() and calcOpticalFlowPyrLK() call

edit

Hello there,

I'm new to this forum, new to opencv and not that experienced as a C++ programmer, so please bear with me for a few seconds..

I recently tried to run the lkdemo.cpp (code below with comments for your convenience)

#include "opencv2/video/tracking.hpp"

    cout << "\nIt uses camera by default, but you can provide a path to video as an argument.\n";
    cout << "\nHot keys: \n"
            "\tESC - quit the program\n"

I am using Visual Studio 2013, and the program compiles fine. When ... (more)
