thanks for your helpful answer and the explanations.
Following up on your comment on http://videocapture.sourceforge.net/
I found that there is jaraco.video, which seems to be
"a port of the VideoCapture module in pure Python using ctypes and
comtypes."
(https://github.com/jaraco/jaraco.video)
It is using a 'DirectShow.tlb' file, whatever that is, to get the
definitions into comtypes.
A TLB file is a "type library". It is a compiled version of the IDL for
a set of COM interfaces. IDL is modified subset of C++ that is used to
declare the functions within a COM interface, their parameters, and
their types. It is intended to be a language-independent way to define
the functions within an interface.
Looks like you're on your way.
