How to count cameras in OpenCV 2.3?

Question

I want to get the number of available cameras.

I tried to count cameras like this:

for(int device = 0; device<10; device++) 
{
    VideoCapture ca         


        

Answer 1

I have also faced similar kind of issue. I solved the problem by using videoInput.h library instead of Opencv for enumerating the cameras and passed the index to Videocapture object. It solved my problem.
