In my program the video properties give me wrong results for the frame count and the msec of the frames in the video. e I know that it must be an opencv problem but I was wondering if I can compile from scratch opencv so that opencv can correctly recognize the video properties.

So I am asking is there a way to configure the ffmpeg or libx264 support so that opencv reads the correct properties?

I am asking because I do not want to do it through ffmpeg apis because i have better understanding of Opencv

What video format of your files? I convert all my video files to avi to make opencv work with them correctly.

sorry it took so long to answer. opencv 2.4.1 i am using and the problem exists only with avi files with h264 encoding. When I change them to mpg things seem to work but the problem is that the videos increase 10 times their size. So any ideas?
