Ejemplo 1: error: (-215: Aserción fallida)! _Src.empty () en la función ‘cv :: cvtColor’

This error happened because the image didn't load properly.
So you have problem with the previous line cv2.imread my suggestion is:

check if the images exist in the path you give

check the count variable if he have valid number

Ejemplo 2: cv2.error: OpenCV (4.2.0) C: projects opencv-python opencv modules imgproc src color.cpp: 182: error: (-215: Assertion failed)! _Src.empty ( ) en la función ‘cv :: cvtColor’

Hello Everyone,

I had run into the same problem a few days back. Here's my perspective on why this error came up and how can it be fixed.

The reason behind the error:-- ```cv2.imread()or cv2.VideoCapture()``` can't find where the fileisand hence gives src.empty() since Noneis returned instead of image or video
- If you are sure that the path specified is correct, then chances are the file being read is corrupted either completely orin a few bits and pieces.

If you got into this problem when working with an image then here is the fix:-- Change the image, literally. If you don't want to change it then try ```from PIL import Image and Image.open()``` and see if that works andtry to display the image by using matplotlib.- Changing or reproducing the same image is the best option in my opinion.

If you got into this problem when working with a video then here is the fix:-- After using ```cv2.VideoCapture('video path')``` Try something like below example.
```
# suppose this was the source 
cap = cv2.VideoCapture('data/input.mpg')# Get width and height of the frame of video
width  = cap.get(3)# float width
height = cap.get(4)# float height    # Make a video writer to see if video being taken as input inflict any changes you make
fourcc = cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*"MJPG")
out_video = cv2.VideoWriter('result/output.avi', fourcc,20.0,(int(width),int(height)),True)# Then try thiswhile(cap.isOpened()):# Read each frame where ret is a return boollean value(True or False)
        ret, frame = cap.read()# if return is true continue because if it isn't then frame is of NoneType in that case you cant work on that frameif ret:# Any preprocessing you want to make on the frame goes here
            gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)# See if preprocessing is working on the frame it should
            cv2.imshow('frame', gray)# finally write your preprocessed frame into your output video
            out_video.write(gray)# write the modifies frame into output video # to forcefully stop the running loop and break out, if it doesnt work use ctlr+cif cv2.waitKey(1)&0xFF==ord('q'):break# break out if frame has return NoneType this means that once script encounters such frame it breaks out # You will get the error otherwise else:break# this will tell you from which frame the video is corrupted and need to be changed # this could be due to an empty frame. Empty frame might be a result of mistake made while creating or editing video in tools #like adobe premier pro or other products alike # You can check you output video it will contains all frame before the error is encountered
```
I hope this solves your problem and you can better debug your video next time you encounter something similar.
