If I have a usb hub/dock with N number of USB Vendor Specific class devices how do distinguish a read of the the files each has into a file system directory on Windows if they all have the same vid/pid or serial number? What can I key on that is a totally unique identifier for each device ? Each device is the same police body cam.

Thank you.

If you are asking how you can identify which physical device a handle, etc., belongs to, that is what serial numbers are for. Multiple devices should not have the same serial number.
