How do I show more thsan one webcam at once in my VB6 app?
I tried using the API capGetDriverDescriptionA Lib "avicap32.dll" etc. but I can only see one camera, the second name doesn't seem to be retrieved.
 
Further to the problem of viewing 2 web cams at once, when the different webcams are selected the AVICap32.dll brings up a built in dialog box asking to select a camera.
Does anyone know how to bypass this so that the two camera will be working a soon as the application starts running without having to select them in the dialog box?
