I have this message using my webcam with matlab r2014b. I'm using Image Adcquisiton toolbox

Warning: No DCAM compliant devices were found. If you have a DCAM compliant device, refer to the DCAM troubleshooting section in the toolbox User's Guide for information on setting up your device.
Can anyone help me?
I have installed the OS Generic video interface and dcam hardware package but I continue with this message.
Thank you.

Did you install the USB webcam support package in addition to the OS generic one?

My computer is a laptop and the webcam is integrated. Is a Dell Inspiron 14R N4110.
I installed the USB webcam package and the message dissapeared. Now I'm trying to get the instalattion package with deploytool and I get this error in the log file:
ant:
<ant>

Test checkout of feature 'Compiler' failed.
mcc failed.
Can you help me?
That sounds like a licensing error indicating there was no compiler license available. Talk to your IT department.

Are you using Windows? If so, if you bring up device manager, do you have an "Imaging Devices" category? If not, then even your OS does not see your camera and certainly MATLAB wouldn't be able to if not even Windows sees it.
You might be able to use the webcam package instead of the Image Acquisition Toolbox: http://www.mathworks.com/support/2014a/matlab/8.3/demos/webcam-support.html
I am also facing this problem. I am using Dell inspiron 5110 built in webcam. it works fine in MATLAB 2009. but not working in MATLAB 2014b. and showing message "Warning: No DCAM compliant devices were found."
