Well I would maintain it, but maybe I should instead run a Fork of FFmpeg with C++ and OpenCV properly done. Yes the current OCV stuff is dead and not supported by OpenCV or maintained it sounds like. So if we can't put C++ into FFmpeg (yet we already have with decklink filters, so that is unfair to say). And we can't switch to use OpenCV C++ yet the C API is dead and not supported. The only solution I see is to run a fork which is sad to have to do. This just seems really unreasonable overall :(.
