unable to add duplicate Source

[Stanky]

Hi,

I want to add 2+ sources from the same camera. When ever I add another source the previous source freezes. My source is from a canon Dslr using EOS utility. I am able to add a browser window and the initial video still works. When ever I add a duplicate of the canon video the previous one freezes. If I go to the source and click deactivate and then activate, that source then becomes live and the other ones all freeze.

Thank you in advance.

You just add the existing source. Don't create a new duplicate one.

Ah I see, so just add the source once, and then copy and paste that source. Is that the best way to do it?

Also when ever I close OBS and come back, the way I had all my sources cropped and enlarged gets messed up. Is there a way to stop that?
