can't find 'winvideo' adaptor in matlab 2014a

I could use the 'winvideo' adaptor in matlab 2013b. Just upgraded to 2014a and typed 'imaqhwinfo' and installedadaptors field is empty.

 Accepted Answer

They have to be (separately) installed now, using the support package installer (which is included with MATLAB). Please see here for the instructions on how to do so:

Best way to solve this ---> if the usb webcam doesnt wanna install winvideo but you just have webcam, so you absolutely should choose : Image Acquisition Toolbox Support Package for "OS Generic Video Interface". This is the answer.
This Image Acquisition is suit running on > Matlab2014
