I am attempting to use multiple Studio Life Cams on a computer for a business Skype meeting. The issue I am running into is that USB hubs will not work with more then 1 camera of this type. If I use one Lifecam studio and one Logitech cam they both work fine. When adding a second Lifecam the video software can not distinguish the cameras from one another. There are a few odd things happening in the hardware manager first the cameras do not show up in the web cam sections. They show up in imaging and in audio inputs and outputs. In imaging each device shows up uniquely. And in the software I can choose either audio stream and they both work. The video does not show up uniquely and the software defaults to the first one plugged in. I believe there needs to be a change similar to how the audio device is handled to fix the issue. Without this you are forced to have as many cameras as you do unique USB ports. Hubs currently will not work. Even though with 3.0 there is enough bandwidth to connect multiple cameras. I currently am running 3 at the same time from individual USB ports.
