Live view broken due to camera name similarities

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug Since 0.8 I’m using two cameras with similar names: “garten” and “vorgarten”. In 0.9 beta as well as RC1 live view of ‘vorgarten’ is broken, the picture seems to mix with ‘garten’. All other cameras (including garten) play out well. The same camera plays out well in Birdsview, recordings, events etc… - So it seems to be a display issue, not so much a capture from camera issue.
