I have an usb console (nexus tfa) so the problem I think it's similar ...I'll try to make some experiment with power usb hub...:dry:

If the QuickCam Pro 5000 isn't expected to work anyway this is probably not relevant but,the ALIX 1D I tried the QCP 5000 on was using a port 5557 connection to RFXCOM data from another Meteohub.

CREATIVE VIDEO IM
MICROSOFT VX6000
SITECOM

A Microsoft LifeCam VX-1000 does work on ALIX.1D with both Meteohub version 3.3 and 4.1c.
I have a WMR928 with serial connection.
Have only tested it indoors but picture quality isn't very good. It's impossible to get it really sharp. At least when compared to a AXIS 207W, but I guess that's only to be expected as that IP-camera costs 14-15 times more than the VX-1000.
