Hi, did you solve it? I am having the same issue here :(

[hollowstrawberry]

I'm pretty sure it just means the image doesn't exist. I fixed the path when opening the image and it worked for me.

[pblxptr]

I have the same issue, but fixing the path does not work for me.

[hollowstrawberry]

Due to the cause of the error in my case, you might want to double check that the image isn't None, or in an otherwise invalid state I suppose (though about that I wouldn't know)

[pblxptr]

The image isn't None. I can show it. It occurs when I'm trying to convert image from RGBA to GRAY.

[ArmoredReaper]

I'm getting the same error, even when using the full path to the image. Someone else I know had the same problem and fixed it by moving the pictures, but I can't get it to work no matter what I try. (FYI working on a Mac, not sure if that changes anything)

[hollowstrawberry]

When I next got this error (or a very similar one at least) it was because I was trying to make my own image with a numpy array. It probably doesn't help in your cases, but I realized each pixel has to be on its own sublist, like so: [[[a,b,c]], [[a,b,c]], [[a,b,c]]]

Try printing your image to the console to see if it makes sense

I also had the same issue. Actually I had mistakenly typed wrong name of image file in my code that I was trying to import. But when I typed the right name of file then this issue was solved.

Even I had the same problem, and the solution was quiet easy. Remember 1 thing, if the RGB values of your image lie in the range of 0-255, make sure the values are not of data type 'float'. As OpenCV considers float only when values range from 0-1. If it finds a float value larger than 1 it clips off the value thinking floats only exsist between 0-1. Hence such errors generated. So convert the data type to uint8 if values are from 0-255.
image = image.astype('uint8')

I met the same problem and found that this occurred to me simply because I commented out 2 lines:

if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
        break

Getting them back made it work.

I solved this problem by use x = np.asarray(x, dtype=np.uint8) before do the conversion

[rozeappletree]

I solved this problem by use x = np.asarray(x, dtype=np.uint8) before do the conversion

for this code, i used your instruction :

cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)

while(True):
# Capture frame-by-frame
ret, frame = cap.read()

frame = np.asarray(frame, dtype=np.uint8)


# Our operations on the frame come here
gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)

# Display the resulting frame
cv2.imshow('frame',gray)
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
    break

When everything done, release the capture

cap.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

i am getting error : int() argument must be a string, a bytes-like object or a number, not 'NoneType'

i have this same error and i dont know how to remove it.
