If a computer has multiple cameras (virtual or physical), it can be hard to identify the camera by an index number. Perhaps enumerating the camera index and which camera it is in a command switch would be useful. In addition, allowing you to select a camera by name would be good for times when the index may change from time to time.

Unfortunately with OpenCV this is really hard, I know, because I'm working on something that is also using the same go libraries. OpenCV just doesn't expose the camera name to the application at all.
