There are two primary issues with (low-cost) multi-channel encoders that are on the market today. The first is that most have proprietary drivers that are not Direct Show compatible. Vitamin D Video works only with Direct Show compatible video card drivers.

Second, and the problem you are running into, is that low-cost multi-channel encoders are actually single channel encoders with multiple inputs. This means that they can only get video from one of the inputs at a time. This is why they are low-cost.

With these devices, you cannot get video from more than one channel simultaneously. Thus, Vitamin D Video only supports one channel for these devices.

Examples of USB-based single-channel encoders that are Direct-Show compatible and known to work:
