I had the similar issue, only with movie instead of webcam. While I did try some miscellaneous fixes (run as administrator, install opencv-python), ultimately my fix was just to specify the file path. Easy as that.

I deleted numpy version 2.x and it started to work (I think numpy version 1.x should be installed).
