SSP is unable to distinguish devices that enumerate with the same name i.e. multiple generic USB cameras for Video Devices

5/10/2021

Applicable SongShow Plus Versions: 
This article applies to all versions of SongShow Plus.

Symptom:
When the user is connecting multiple USB devices, SSP is unable to distinguish devices that enumerate with the same name i.e. multiple generic USB cameras.

Possible Cause: 
This is currently expected behavior as SSP uses the enumeration provided by the device drivers. The expectation is that the driver should be enumerating multiple cameras as Generic Camera #1, #2 or something like that.

Possible Solution:
Use different cameras or one that the driver will enumerate them properly.

Possible Solution:
It may be possible to edit the registry to rename the devices.  In this case the drivers may just overwrite this on reboot however.  Edit the registry at your own risk.
