VideoCapture not working even in opencv 2.4.6.1

I installed opencv @2.4.6.1_0 + python27 via macports on my mac os x 10.7.5 and the VideoCapture stopped working. Can any of you verify that the latest version of opencv with python27 on macports is working properly?

I've read all the discussions online about how opencv 2.4.6 had a bug in the video capture pipeline for linux machines and I've noticed how people have had to rebuild and reinstall python, numpy and opencv in the past week. Their problem seemed to have been resolved by rebuilding opencv 2.4.6.1 with WITH_V4L=ON. But I am stuck because I have been using macports for various libraries and I dont want to go through the whole download>build>make>install routine for all my different libraries.

Please help.
