title: pygame camera on Windows
body: <p>I am running windows 7, python 2.7 and pygame 1.9.2a0. Running</p>
  
  <pre><code>import pygame.camera
  import pygame.image
  import sys
  pygame.camera.init()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "&lt;pyshell#14&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;
  pygame.camera.init()
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Python3.4-32bit\lib\site-packages\pygame\camera.py", line 42, in init
  from pygame import _camera
  ImportError: cannot import name '_camera'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>According to the stackexchange question at:
  <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29673348/how-to-open-camera-with-pygame-in-windows">How to open camera with pygame in Windows?</a>
  this should work (at least it was accepted as answer for windows 7, python 2.7 and pygame 1.9.1)</p>
  
  <p>Does anybody have a good suggestion why this does not work (or why it did work for Debujang in the above link and does not work for me?) </p>
  
  <p>I am grateful for any help that will ultimatively allow me to stream the picture of the webcam to a figure and capture a frame from within python.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
