I am trying to install openCV 3.4.0 . on Cuda 10 using source file. I am getting below error.

Hi, I met the exact same error while trying to build opencv 4.0.0 with CUDA 10.0.

I would be very interested if you found a solution.

EDIT : My problem is solved. I dont know for yours.

Actually, NVIDIA Video Decoder (NVCUVID) is deprecated in CUDA 10.
([url]https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/video-decoder/index.html[/url])

The issue is fixed if we desactivate the Cuda video decoder (also called NVCUVID ) with the following option in cmake : -D BUILD_opencv_cudacodec=OFF

I found this solution on https://github.com/opencv/opencv_contrib/issues/1786

I had the same issue on 3.4.5 and your suggested cmake flag helped, thanks!

cmake ... -D BUILD_opencv_cudacodec=OFF ...
