Hi I am new to opencv. I just downloaded the latest source and I am following the installation procedures as given on the website. I get this error and after searching the questions others have asked, I still dont have an answer to this problem.

Modify the 1445th line of opencv-2.4.9/modules/highgui/src/cap_ffmpeg_impl.hpp:

avformat_free_context(oc);

to:

#if LIBAVFORMAT_BUILD >= CALC_FFMPEG_VERSION(53, 2, 0)
    avformat_free_context(oc);
#else
    av_free_format_context(oc);
#endif

Or, try to upgrade ffmpeg >= 0.10.11
