Hi everybody1 I obtain an image from my webcam and then transfer it to a gray image to process. Here is my code:

int main()
{
    CvCapture *capture = cvCreateCameraCapture(0);
    IplImage *src = cvCreateImage(cvSize(50,50),8,1);
    IplImage *src1 = cvCreateImage(cvSize(50,50),8,3);
    while (true)
    {
        src1 = cvQueryFrame(capture);
        cvCvtColor(src1,src,CV_BGR2GRAY); 
        char c = cvWaitKey(33);
        if(c == 27)
        {
            break;
        }

        cvShowImage("TestWebCam",src1);
        cvShowImage("TestWebCam2",src);


    }

When I compile my program it's no error but when I Run this program then It will terminate. I don't no Why but I think the error happen at line " cvCvtColor(src1,src,CV_BGR2GRAY) " because if I delete this line then I can obtain image from webcam normally. Everyone can help me correct this error ! Have a great day :D

why not you try to use updated c++ style API?

Where did you create your display windows?

@unxnut they are created implicitly when calling cvShowImage. However I think he forgot to add a c5vWaitKey(1) to ensure the drawing method got its time to visualize.

@StevenPuttemans I added line " char c = cvWaitKey(33) " but my program still suspend. I don't know why ?

move the cvShowImage(.....); lines above cvWaitKey(33); line.
Try not specifying cvCreateImage(cvSize(50,50),8,3); as IplImage *src1 ;

May be this may work

@jamesnzt I tried following your method but this program still suspended. When I debug, it appears the notification : Unhandled exception at 0x76b12eec in OpenCV3.exe: Microsoft C++ exception: cv::Exception at memory location 0x0062f94c.. Can you help me ? Thanks so much :D

int main() { VideoCapture capture (0); Mat src1, src2; while (true) { capture >> scr1; cvtColor(src1.clone(),src2,CV_BGR2GRAY); imshow("TestWebCam", src1); imshow("TestWebCam2", src2); int key = waitKey(10); if(key == 27) { break; } } }

@StevenPuttemans Thanks so much :D but I still can't know why my program didn't run. I think " IplImage " is like with " Mat " . Can you tell me about this problem ?

IplImage is the old C-structure. It is the old API of OpenCV 1.x days. However still plenty of samples on the net available. The newer OpenCV 2.x API uses C++. Best guess is to check the docs to see what the C++ alternative is to a C item.
