Hi When running multiple webcams of the same kind imagesnap -l no longer returns unique names. Example:

% imagesnap -l
2022-04-05 11:51:34.840 imagesnap[4162:93101] =>> Checked Property: [cfen] 1667655022
2022-04-05 11:51:34.840 imagesnap[4162:93101] =>> Checked Property: [cfen] 1667655022
2022-04-05 11:51:34.840 imagesnap[4162:93101] =>> Checked Property: [cfen] 1667655022
2022-04-05 11:51:34.840 imagesnap[4162:93101] =>> Checked Property: [cfac] 1667653987
Video Devices:
=> Logitech BRIO
=> Logitech BRIO
=> Logi Capture
=> FaceTime HD Camera (Built-in)

Would it be possible to add #1, #2 etc. to the names that are not unique? Thanks Jacob

Oh, and a request :)

It would be a great feature if you could do timelaps from multiple cameras with one command. And the filename included webcam name and timestamp.

I have done this with a script, but Mac OS updates breaks it from time to time...

Thanks Jacob
