I’ve downloaded the opencv_contrib-4.x.zip file, unzipped it, pointed to the
opencv_contrib>/modules
for the OPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH and configured and generated in CMake. I’m recompiling in VS 2017 as we speak.
I had done a rapid transition from OCV 2.4 to 4.5 and never caught the fact that they made contrib a separate download. I’m pretty sure this will solve my problem.
Thanks a million for the headsup.
