#5 Source switching

[Anonymous]

It would be really useful to be able to switch between different camera
connected to the same computer. For example, having a bunch of
webcam objects each of which draws from a different USB camera
input.

this is harder to program than one might think. i've been
trying to do it - as well as looked for examples on the mac.
I think this feature will only be supported on PC and Linux.
Oh well - sorry Apple.

That would be EXTREMELY useful.

I take it your request is to be able to switch sources while the app is running.

But how do you(if there's a way) specify the source when you initialize the camera object inside your code?

I'm running on a laptop with a built-in webcam, but I want to use the video feed from the USB webcam I have plugged in -- please help!
