I used CoffeeCup last year for my Live PuppyCAM and am trying to run it again this year (though I'm using the registered version this year and was on the trial version last - only thing I've changed really). Trying to use the streaming video and this is what I'm getting in the messages:
Connecting to Video Source...
Starting Streaming Video from Device....
using video device: Live! Cam Video IM Pro (VFW) (vfw)
using audio device: Modem #0 Line Record (WDM)
using audio renderer:
Default DirectSound Device
on input default
Network Streaming Started: mms://192.168.2.101:3754
graph can't run
And it SAYS its streaming (I get my external streaming URL which is correct for my port forwarding in my router) but the preview window shows nothing - its just a blank outline the right size of the video. I know when I did this last year, I'd SEE what it was streaming - I haven't even tried looking at my webcam page yet, since I'm not getting this preview. Any idea whats wrong? I'm assuming it has something to do with the "graph can't run" thing but no idea what that means. I've tried searching the knowledge base and the forums and doesn't appear anyone else has posted about this.
Oh, and I know my camera is working, if I open the Creative Labs Cam Console, I can see the camera area just fine.
Also, I really don't care about the audio since I mute it anyway...
Running Windows XP SP2
v4 CoffeeCup Webcam Registered Version
I can run it fine on my regular laptop but get that error on my daughter's old one. They have the same system and stuff - I just wanted to run it on her laptop since it isn't used all the time!
Help?

I'm now trying this on my husband's newer desktop... he's running Windows Vista Ultimate (32-bit) with a nVidia 8800 GTS, and Creative Labs LIVE! Cam Pro. It ran fine yesterday and then today when we tried starting it - we get the "Graph Can't Run" error and no preview window (its just blank).
No one has any ideas?

first of all lets make sure that the cam itself works, go to control panel, click on device manager. see your cam , dose it contain any flags, ?
if not sure. go to yahoo-live sign up for a account. Does that sight see your cam ? you should be able to stream. If your camera is not being recognized visit the manufactures site, look for drivers, for your cam. download install.
make sure you have the latest codecs installed on your pc google K-lite codec pac,, final make sure all drivers on the PC are up to date ....
good luck.... and also port 80 is standard,,, make sure if your running windows fire wall or ant 3rd party software it has that port is open, as I said I would change to 80

I have the same problem streaming with my webcam: graph can't run. If I choose not to start streaming I can see image and everything is ok, so no problem with drivers.
Port for streaming is standard (80), I tried to open on my firewall this port TCP and UDP but no luck. I tried also to change port to 81 but nothing changed.
Codec k-lite installed and nothing changed.
