Multiple identical webcams and getting "Cannot start native grabber!" #334
Comments
It appears to be happening when calling .setViewSize() on the second camera of same make/model. I can only set the custom view size on the first camera. Any other attempt gives the above error. |
Hi @zbrowning, The stack trace is clearly from |
I'm setting it to 1280x720. Thanks! |
What FPS your camera has on 1280x720 (max nominal value)? If it's equal or higher than 10 FPS, then you're probably hitting your USB capacity limit. If this is the case then lowering resolution should help. You can find more details on this issue at the end of this thread #139. |
It does appear I'm hitting the USB capacity limit. If I split the cameras between controllers, I no longer get the error. I'm going to pursue some USB3 webcams to take advantage of the bandwidth. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. |
@zbrowning, please note that I never tested USB 3.0 webcams with Webcam Capture API and I'm not 100% sure if they will work correctly with existing impl. |
When attempting to open a second camera, I get the following exception. Any ideas?
My goal is to have multiple cameras open concurrently.
Thanks!
