Change camera number
Hi,
is there any way to change the camera number of one or more webcam?
I use some applescript to automatize my webcam, but, if i unplug and reconnect a webcam, securityspy change the number of it and then i have to modify my applescript every time..
Example:
active mode camera number 0
unplug
reconnect
active mode camera number 0 -> no camera number exist
because camere number now is 1..
Help me please!
Thanks

Sorry but there is no way to change the camera number.
However, camera numbers should remain constant. If you unplug and replug the camera, SecuritySpy should keep the same camera number. There must be a reason for the change (perhaps the driver software is reporting to SecuritySpy a new name or ID of the camera after it has been disconnected and replugged).
Can you please tell me what make/model of camera you are using, and what version of SecuritySpy?

Version of SecuritySpy: 3.3
Perhaps the only thing I did was reconnect to a USB port different from the previous one...
reconnect to the old usb port, the camera number come back to the original one.
