    I need to write code to record video on Windows. I understand this is still not supported. http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtmultimedia-windows.html

    Is there a recommended library for video capture. I saw QtMEL http://kibsoft.ru/ which is 5 years old. Is this still recommended for Qt 5.10?

        Thanks for your reply.

        We expect to use webcams or built-in cameras.

        vlc-qt seems to be aimed at media playback. Does it also support camera recording?

            Hi guys

            thanks for your help.
            We decided to not support Windows in the end.
