So close to easy November 10, 2008 The book encourages early attempts at jumping in; however, this is a mistake as the early examples simply are not complete and they won't work. However, persevere with the book and the OpenCV free library, and you will be richly rewarded. You simply must make extensive use of the index to dig up the information necessary for completion of the first examples, and perseverence will leave you with a basic test structure into which you can plug the many image processing functions with minimal changes. This is fun. Frankly I haven't got the video working yet, and frankly I've been more interested in the static processing since my job needs this more. I've got the libraries working on both Linux and XP, with splendid, visually impressive, results. When I get more time I'll be working through to the advanced examples. Meanwhile, I recommend recent versions of KDevelop-c/c++ if you are working on Linux; the Library dependencies are even easier than windows.
