Question / Help OBS will not display multiple video capture devices

[jackkenney]

Hello,

I've been using OBS for some months now, with no problems whatsoever. However, recently, OBS will not allow me to display more than one video capture source at a time in a given Scene. I am using a Dazzle DVC100 and a Microsoft LifeCam HD3000 webcam. I am able to display both devices on their own in OBS, but not at the same time. When I enable both devices, whichever one I enable second will not display anything, just a black box. This is quite strange, and I think the problem lies within OBS. Xsplit works just fine, but I REALLY don't want to use XSplit!!! I love OBS, and would love to continue using it.

Please reply with any information or suggestions. I'm happy to provide additional information/specifications if need be.

Thanks,

-Jack

Try moving them to different USB ports, you're probably overloading the hub bandwidth.

I did try this, R1CH, to no avail. However, after jumping through flaming hoops for a few days (OS reinstall, 4am googling for drivers, etc.), I've managed to get it to work. I have no idea how or why, but it works now. Thanks anyway!
