I can't load the "capture"

HI, I am a novice for Processing. I am learning the "Capture" part, which is "processing.org/learning/libraries/gettingstartedcapture.html."

When I tried to copy and run its code, it got error and  highlighted the sentence "cam = new Capture(this, 320, 240);" . The error message is:
"quicktime.std.StdQTException[QTJava:7.6.0g],-9405=couldntGetRequiredComponent,QT.vers:7628000
