I ve try 4 USB Microsoft® LifeCam HD-5000 webcams each on an additional PCI to USB card and it s works fine.
I m just limited because of my poor uploading bandwidth (64ko/s).

So the solution was to buy 3 cheap  PCI to USB cards on Ebay about 5€ each one.

May this help someones.

i ve just try my 2 usb webcams on mac pro g5 mac osx 10.5.8 and it didn't work, with the same issue.
BUT it WORKS when i plug the 2nd webcam on an additional pci to usb card...

It seems tp be a limitation of the usb bus.

I continue to test with 3 and 4 webcams with and without usb hub.
