Hi all,
Question regarding the amount of camera devices I'm able to use during DJ-livestreams when using OBS:
I've noticed that on both my laptop and desktop computer, both W10, I'm limited to a max. amount of 3 to sometimes 4 USB-camera devices. This includes DSLR's (connected through HDMI-capture cards) and USB-webcams.
Is this due to general limitations of PCI USB-ports or OBS itself?
My setup is the following:
1. Mirrorless camera connected with USB set to 1280x720x30fps
2. DSLR camera connected with USB set to 1280x720x30fps
3. Webcam (C922) connected with USB set to 1280x720x30fps
Now adding anything else will cause the fourth camera to glitch out (both DSLR or webcams) on both my laptop and desktop, even though my dekstop is superior in every way and has far more USB slots compared to my laptop.
Using USB-hubs won't make a difference.
Are there any ways to add even more devices? Or would this require a switch for example?
Thanks!
