I have a video streaming application which works well on the Raspberry Pi 2. I am trying to switch out the Pi 2 and move everything to a Pi Zero.

When I connect the USB camera to the Pi Zero directly the camera works fine. If I connect the camera and a WiFi adapter to the Pi using a hub, the camera doesn't work. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get everything working?

I am using a hub with its own power source.

It's possible that the webcam doesn't get enough power via the hub. You could try a powered USB hub.

Try again with only the camera connected to the USB hub i.e. no keyboard or anything else. If it works then it's a power issue with the hub.
