Question / Help crashes when 3x webcams added

[ThePhantomUltron]

Hi I have two C920s and one B910, I can only add two at a time, select a thord and the program crashes. Is there a limit? Thanks

Also this is being done on three monitors, using nvidea surround.

The limit is being caused by the drivers for your camera, not by OBS.

OK, is that because they are the same type?

 

[Harold]

No. It's probably that you're overloading your usb controller.

See what happens if you set them all to a small resolution. If it then works, you can guess that the USB bus was being maxed out. If it still doesn't work, its some other problem, like drivers.
