I get the following error when trying to configure OpenCV using CMAKE on windows:

Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I tried downloading opencv_ffmpeg.dll manually, but the configure process didn't work.

Can you help me, how to fix that?

Answer 1

Had the same problem recently with opencv 3.1.0. Resolved the situation by using corresponding dll(s) from the ./build/bin directory of an opencv extract. As for ffmpeg_version.cmake, grabbed it from the link given. Replace the files under ./sources/3rd party/ffmpeg then reconfigure cmake.
