gstreamer pipeline program using OpenCV 2.4.8 throws run-time error

Question

On Windows x64, I have a gstream pipeline program using OpenCV 2.4.8 throws run-time error about the procedure entry point findHomography not located in library avcodec-55.dll.

Here is the exact message on the dialog box:

"The procedure entry point ?findHomography@cv@@YA?AVMat@AEBV_InputArray@1@0HNAEBV_OutputArray@1@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library avcode-55.dll."

I have no clue how to debug this issue or what to try. I appreciate your pointers if you come across similar issue or suggest me how to debug such issue.

Regards, Amit!
