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
