Really weird problem here. I've got my webcam and capture card both set up and they both work just fine. Problem is, I can't get both to show up on the same scene at the same time. If the capture card is being displayed the webcam just isn't there, and if I untick the capture card and repreview the stream the webcam shows up. From there, if I retick the capture card it just shows up as a red box. There is nothing else using either device. Webcam is built in with my Lenovo ideapad and the capture card is a Dazzle DVC 100. They are both set up as Video Capture Devices. I've tried restarting OBS and I'm gonna try restarting my computer, just wanted to get this thread out there before I do so. Thanks!

Before we try anything else, change the source order. Meaning, if your webcam is first on the list and your cap. card is second, switch the order and make your cap. card first, and webcam second. I've noticed sometimes things won't show up depending on the order they are in for some reason. Like, i have to put my twitter handle graphic first on the list to have it show up.
