I have two webcams connected: dev/video0 is the laptop built in webcam and dev/video1 is an HD quality webcam that I would like to use, but Camorama defaults to dev/video0. How can I select dev/video1?

I can do it with this is a terminal: camorama --device /dev/video1 – user104140 Nov 27 '12 at 8:34

You can use the following command from the shell:

camorama -d=/dev/video1

This is not possible in Camorama.

Use "Cheese" instead of "Camorama" and simply select the camera you need in preferences.

Are you saying that's impossible to do using Camorama? – Flimm Jan 5 at 16:25
