Question / Help Live Gamer Portable: Can I use 2 at once?

[neigutten]

Hey!

At work we just bought 2 LGP's to stream with, but it seems we can't use them both at once? Is there a workaround on this? Or am I just doing something wrong?

From my understanding this it depends on the device and driver. the "video capture device" sources use direct show and if the driver and/or hardware wasn't made to differentiate between the devices, using two will detect the last plugged in.
a solid work around would be to get two non-identical devices to ensure device IDs are different.

@dodgepong might be able to verify this

The tricky thing with the LGP is that you have to use the Stream Engine for best results, and I think the Stream Engine only supports one device at a time.

Yeah, that is my fear as well. Are there other possible ways of getting the feed from the second LGP in another way, which is .. not the best results?

Since both will run through the stream engine, I doubt there will be. feel free to play with it and/or call/e-mail their support
