They used to have obvious names: one was called something like "Integrated Camera C" and the other was called something like "HuddleCamHD". Strangely, they have both been renamed to be "Video Capture 4", which means I can't easily distinguish between them when switching cameras in tools such as Zoom or OBS Studio. Here's some output showing this: $ v4l2-ctl --list-devices Video Capture 4 (usb-0000:00:14.0-5.2.3): /dev/video2 /dev/video3 Video Capture 4 (usb-0000:00:14.0-8): /dev/video0 /dev/video1 Likewise, I'm seeing precisely the same issue on my desktop computer, which is also running Ubuntu 20.04.04: Video Capture 4 (usb-0000:00:14.0-3.4.3): /dev/video0 /dev/video1 I'm running kernel version 5.13.0-30. This error first occurs with kernel version 5.13.0-28. If I boot with an earlier version, it detects the webcam names just fine.
