Hi Peter In the meantime I changed the alternate setting from 3 to 1 in the cpia_usb_open function. Now, both cameras are able to set the alternate setting (interface = 1), but xawtv (gqcam as well) is still not able to display both streams! I think that there is enough USB bandwidth since I changed the alternate setting to 1. Am I right? That means that video4linux has troubles handling both cameras simultaneously?
