Can't Connect 2 Scenes together on both Scenes

My Problem is I have a Scene with all my Cam Positions and I can connect it to My Main Scene So that when I'm Changing my Cam Position the recording still shows but on the other Hand I can't connect from my Main Scene to my Cam Scene so when I want to change something, like what window I want to record my Cam won't Show up because when I want to link my other Scene it doesn't appear on my Screen

You can add a video capture device source (webcam) only once, since Windows allows access only to one data consumer. However, there is hope. Remove all video capture device sources in all scenes and keep one. Then re-add it to where you deleted it, but use the "add existing" option. This way OBS is duplicating the source internally and you're able to add as many instances of it as you need.

For cropping, don't use the crop filter but instead press and hold down ALT, then drag the source border handles in the preview to crop.

In case you want a different set of filters for each of these instances another workaround is required, because filters are inherited by all instances. Create a group for each cam instance and put the cam instance into that group. Then apply the filters to the group, not directly to the instance.

Like you helped me with the cropping thing, but my main Problem is that I want to select where my Cam should go in 1 Scene and in the other scene is my main recording stuff, so I want to switch both scenes so that my Stream always sees both things at all time.
