When i want to open video file with VideoCapture, the isOpened() returns everytime false. But VideoCapture works with the camera. I use build from the opencv.org. It worked few days ago, but i forgot what i did to work. :P

So my question is, what should i do, if after VideoCapture video_in("video.mp4"); video_in.isOpened() returns false? Is it wrong settings, or did i forget add some libs?

Thank you.

[EDIT] Problem solved, i coied opencv_ffmpeg300.dll to debug folder, and it works now.

Could you specify the full path of the debug folder?

I experienced the same problem. I resolved it adding the location of opencv_ffmpeg300_64.dll (for instance: <path_to_opencv>\opencv\build\x64\vc12\bin) to my PATH variable.

Perhaps some file access permission problem here? Have you tried running with privileged rights? Or maybe you should specify the full path to video file, CWD could be set to some other location than you expect.
