    I don't know how low level you want to go, but assuming you don't want to re-implement video codecs then GStreamer is probably a good place to start, it allows you to create modular video pipelines and it has Go bindings (although I've not personally used them).
  • Is it possible to detect text and edit from image in golang?

    For the latter I have gstreamer bindings here https://github.com/tinyzimmer/go-gst , but you could potentially also implement yourself with other libraries tuned to the purpose.

    I noticed you have some gstreamer examples which is awesome! In case you are interested, I maintain bindings also (and the app libraries are included) if you wanted to remove some of that internal boilerplate :).

    If CGO isn't off the table, gstreamer can do some interesting stuff with the app library. I have bindings here. This example plays with "dynamically" producing image frames.
