Hello,

since now nobody reply me an answer so probably nobody understand me ??

So I want to show you my vi. May be anyone see my mistakes or can told me that this can't function...

As I wrote this vi I expected to see the pictures of both cameras in the activeX containers....

But everytime I see in both containers the pictures of one camera.

Please Help me.

Kid,

Looking at your code - you've wired the same "uniqueName" into the active-X control . This would appear to want a unique name - so I would change it to something different than the other camera name.

Other than that - that should work.

Thanks for reply but also with "uniqueName" it does not work. I have read in the SDK of Logitech, that only one Active X Object can create at one time

so the second Active X Container takes the reference of the first one.

Has anyone an idea to solve this problem... ?

thanks a lot..

Kidd,

Irene He has a very nice tookit called iVision - it's free or you pay a small fee.

I just played with it today and it worked great - looks like it will support more than one camera. Also, it will save you lots of groping over the next few days...!
