Switching between two webcams on the dashboard

I know I know! There are already a LOT of these type of threads! Just hear me out :-)

We are working on trying to have a front and rear webcam for our robot. We want the view on the dashboard (the default LabVIEW dashboard) to switch cameras by either a press of a button or autonomously.

We have tried the various methods here on CD, but nothing worked yet.

One thing we noticed was that the RoboRIO is showing both webcams in the Configuration page (roborio-2990-frc.local/) as "cam0" and "cam1", but they're both enumerated as "USB0" (see attachment)

We're wondering if this might be our problem. Is this supposed to happen? If so, does anyone have a WORKING LabVIEW example of switching webcams?

Thanks!

(Again, sorry for ANOTHER post about dual webcams, but I feel like this is a bit of a different issue then the rest)
