Can python use VideoCapture for custom added functions in opencv 3.2.0?

I am editing ffmpeg and opencv's libraries to accommodate a feature to read NTP timestamps of a video stream's packets. Would I have to make adjustments to the videocapture function from python? I don't really understand the python bindings for videocapture. Can anyone explain?

Edit: I found the solution, apparently all i had to do was just edit the C++ code on the version of opencv of my choice then just build it and make install. Then it was called in videocapture's class.

Thanks a lot berak! the documentation helped quite a bit.
