Question / Help Run 2 Identical Webcams using OBS

Hi there,

Recently I purchased a second webcam in which I wanted to include a second cam in my live stream. I set up a second scene after plugging in the webcam #2 and then attempted to "Preview Stream" to identify if both cams were working. They were not. The record light on webcam #1 is solid (as it is on and operating properly), while the record light on webcam #2 is blinking. Also my whole OBS locks up during this process. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

I'm asking around on Twitch.tv and one guy suggested that both cameras need to be plugged into USB ports of the same version, i.e. 2.0 vs one 2.0 and the other 3.0. Any experience with this?
