    Anyone out there got an OrangePi One in use? I have one sitting here doing duty as "east weathercam". It is rather inconveniently dropping the USB cam for reasons unknown. When the device drops off from /dev/video0 it reappears as /dev/video1 the streamer is still running streaming nothing.

    I've not come across this on any other USB ports, I've tried swapping the USB Cameras many times, and I've increased the available power from 1A out to 5A all with no change.

    At this point I'm considering running a crontab to check where the videoX is, and if the running streamer is on the right dev, killing it all and restarting if it isn't, but thats not really solving the original problem.
