I have problem in using VideoCapture calss for opening a MPEG video file. The code was compile properly. However, during the running time, it can not open the file and give me the following warning message:

warning: Error opening file (../../modules/highgui/src/cap_ffmpeg_impl.hpp:477)

I have this problem only when I build my code in debug mode. I relsease mode the code works correctly.

The code also works correctly in the c style using CvCapture and cvCaptureFromAVI (in both release and debug mode), however, I'd like to develop my code in more C++ style.

(I am using OpenCV 2.3 in Visual-studio (C++) 10)

Thank you for you helps

  • I think I'm having the same issue. If I run my code in Visual Studio, it works fine. If I run outside of Visual Studio, it can't find the video. Commented Jun 18, 2012 at 17:01

Check your include paths. It sounds like the build environment is properly configured for Release-mode but not Debug-mode.

I think it is a problem with opencv 2.4.2 In my case I changed it to opencv 2.4.3. Now it is working. But some works like face detection are not working with opencv 2.4.3. Build a new project and include the directories of opencv 2.4.3 . It will work then.

Since you're obviously uncertain about whether this might help, it should be a comment, not an answer.
