Im just starting to learn python. This is my first code. I tried using the webcam. For some reason it gives me an error.
Code

import cv2, time

video = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
check, frame = video.read()

print(check)
print(frame)

cv2.imshow("vegans have big gay", frame)

cv2.waitKey(0)
video.release()

errors:

False
[ WARN:0] videoio(MSMF): OnReadSample() is called with error status: -1072875772
None
[ WARN:0] videoio(MSMF): async ReadSample() call is failed with error status: -1072875772
[ WARN:1] videoio(MSMF): can't grab frame. Error: -1072875772
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "C:/Users/stasiek/PycharmProjects/pierwszy/capture.py", line 9, in <module>
 cv2.imshow("vegans have big gay", frame)
cv2.error: OpenCV(3.4.3) C:projectsopencv-pythonopencvmoduleshighguisrcwindow.cpp:356: error: (-215:Assertion failed) size.width>0 && size.height>0 in function 'cv::imshow'

Try this way, resizing the video and wrapping video capture in a loop (with break on key pressed):

import cv2

video = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
video.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH,640);
video.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT,480);

while True:
 check, frame = video.read()
 cv2.imshow('Video window', frame)

 # press 'q' on keyboard to exit
 if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
 break

video.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
