Add disclaimer about duplicate camera names #75

Closed lucian151 closed 1 year ago

lucian151 commented 1 year ago

There can be occurrences where LumenPnP users think they have two of the same cameras, rather than distinct Top and Bottom camera. However, it is rare that LumenPnP users with cameras from Opulo received the wrong hardware. It is also rare for ELP to program (or label) these camera models with the wrong Device ID.

What seems to be the issue more often than not is actually that OpenPnP get the camera's Device IDs mixed up due to the modules having identical UUIDs.

While OpenPnP thinking the top and bottom camera have the same name is confusing, it usually can be ignored after setup. It would be a good idea to add a disclaimer to the docs that alerts customers on how to handle this situation themselves.

This problem seems to only occur on Windows from additional observation.
