Why do I get a crash when a runtime error occurs while running generated code from the Video Input block?

Running generated code for the Video Input block leads to a crash if a runtime error occurs. Examples of a runtime error are: * The image acquisition device is not connected to the system * The image acquisition device is not accessible * The image acquisition device or its drivers are not properly installed

This is a known limitation for MATLAB releases R14+( version 1.6) through R14SP2 (version 1.8).

As of R14SP3 (version 1.9), generated code for the Video Input block now handles runtime errors gracefully. If a runtime error is encoutered, the generated code will stop the simulation run and report the cause of the problem.
