Hi,

You should force your app to use another video device. eg:

xawtv -device /dev/video1 (/dev/video0 is the default)

AFAIK currently, there's no way to force a video device to a specific
device number (eg: webcam -> /dev/video0, Haupage -> /dev/video1). So
you'll have to try to find the correct device :(
