process video stream from memory buffer

Question

I need to parse a video stream (mpeg ts) from proprietary network protocol (which I already know how to do) and then I would like to use OpenCV to process the video stream i

Answer 1

Code to do similar to the above, for opencv 4.2.0 is on: https://github.com/jcdutton/opencv Branch: 4.2.0-jcd1

Load the entire file into RAM pointed to by buffer, of size buffer_size. Sample code:

VideoCapture d_reader1;
d_reader1.open_buffer(buffer, buffer_size);
d_reader1.read(input1);

The above code reads the first frame of video.
