Ok, another interesting test with the same cameras. This time I used  
luvcview for one camera and another program for the second that allows me  
to select the frame rate.

1st camera: YUY2 960x720 @ 10 fps
2nd camera: YUY2 640x480 @ 15 fps works but fails with error -28 at >= 20  
fps.

So you see that the bandwidth does indeed depend on the frame rate.

Also quite interesting

1st camera: YUY2 960x720 @ 10 fps
2nd camera: YUY2 960x720 @ 5 fps

Streaming starts but the picture of the second camera is completely messed  
up (the upper half is okay but the lower half is green and flickering)  
because packets are lost. I'll post more information as soon as I know  
where exactly the packets get lost but it might be a while ...

Cheers,
Martin
