Dear Sirs,

I want to create video processing app for Mac using Cocoa & OpenCV. Could you point me how should I proceed to setup ffmpeg, openCV, other required components properly, and maybe point me to sample or skeleton Cocoa Mac app?

Thanks, Igor

"I want to create video processing app" -- i'm not sure, if you should use opencv in this case.

do you need audio ?

No, the app will find & recognize certain objects in video file and mark them. I'm pretty sure I need openCV & I have base code that works under Windows. I need to migrate it to Cocoa for Mac & proceed further than.

I would exhaust all of Apples classes before you incorporate opencv. They have a lot of shape and face recognizers/trackers. Way easier to use what they have, take if from someone who incorporated....and keeps having to incorporate opencv every time Apple issues a new update. I have opencv 3.1 on my iMac with El Capitan 10.11.4 using Xcode 7.3.

Thanks for idea, jmbapps, I'll look into that side. At least I can try to grab frames using their API, convert to opencv and process as needed.
