the OPENCV property sheets are the project settings for open CV so you can be linked in with the dlls and have access to the includes etc... Theres a tutorial on youtube for the 2.4.3 versions you might have to modify a few things but it should work

Hey dude nice work but can u tell me what are the settings you have done in the property manager? I mean you have created your own property sheet can you tell me what files you have included in Additional dependencies? Please help me.

Oddly enough when using VS 2012 to compile this, it only seems to work when run with the microsoft debugger attached.
Ex: If I press"Local Windows Debugger" (even in release mode) in VS, my face is recognized fine, but if I compile it and run it outside VS then I get a video feed with no face recognition. Any reason to this?

Hi The work is amazing. I tried the code and it works on my laptop webcam. However, it shows some lags when I am moving around. Is there a way improve this?

geeez over 20 minutes and I'm trying to find an answer to a single issue, and you don't even talk so I don't know what you're doing. glad everyone else liked it though.

why no sound? very annoying tutorials are about learning not just copying and pasting, should be more insight.  Thanks for the video though.
