NS_E_VIDCAPSTARTFAILED
NS_E_VIDCAPSTARTFAILED: the configured video capture graph could not transition from setup into active streaming
NS_E_VIDCAPSTARTFAILED (0xC00D1B69) identifies a specific Windows Media/platform boundary: the configured video capture graph could not transition from setup into active streaming. Keep this stage visible instead of collapsing it into a generic playback, network, or configuration failure.
Evidence to preserve
Record graph filters/pins, negotiated media type, device state, start timestamp, driver logs, and the first failing Run/start call.
Controlled verification
Prove the same graph can enter streaming with the chosen format and no competing owner. Format negotiation success alone is not enough.
