Hello, Given the well-known unstability history of ffmpeg, may I suggest you look into libvidcap or mediastreamer2 (from LinPhone) ? Both are cross-platform, small and mostly autocontained (save for optional features)
https://sourceforge.net/projects/libvidcap/ http://www.linphone.org/ http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/linphone.git/tree/linphone/mediastreamer2 There is GStreamer, too, but it's so difficult to build it on Windows, I suggest not touching it with a 10-foot pole. Not to speak of the problems when your Qt is not built with the glib event loop.
