I am doing motion detection in OpenCV. My OS is Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I have installed all the dependencies and builded the opencv 2.4.3 from source. I am able to play with my webcam in opencv code. But when i am tryng to detect motion the following error is coming.
"OpenCV Error: Unsupported format or combination of formats (Gstreamer Opencv backend doesn't support this codec acutally.)"
Please help to solve this problem...
My Code:
