I need to feed five cameras into Jitter. They will be all plugged to the same MacbookPro but only once at a time will be capturing.

The problem is that I need optical zoom cameras. So I haven't found optical zoom webcams, and the unibrain fireware cameras don't have zoom.

Another option is using miniDV with USB stream, but the quality is so poor... I would like at least 640x480 and 30fps.

Any ideas?
Thank you soooo much!


Feed 5 optical zoom cams. USB or FW?
