Webcam with Vive

[sameer.deshpande]

Hi Guys,

I have tried a variety of Webcams (Logitech HD 920 Pro, Microsoft HD, OVR Vision Pro, etc.). I have tried USB 2.0 & USB 3.0. I now have a separate USB 3.0 Card and so the vive is on the additional USB 3.0 and the webcams on the onboard USB 2.0. Webcams are not working with the vive plugged in.

Under SteamVR App> Settings> USB; here Camera shows [Port2] : USB Composite Device (VID:0BB4 PID:2C87), Alpha Imaging Tech, MMP SDK. However I dont understand how to use this camera in Unity.

In Unity I have written a code that uses WebCamTexture() function, which works beautiful without Vive but with Vive connected, it fails.

What should I do? Any suggestions from the VIVE Experts and Unity Experts?
