You can try this code, I haven’t tested with multiple camera, hope this will work,

#include "opencv2/opencv.hpp"
#include<iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
using namespace std;
using namespace cv;

int main(int, char**)
{
    int maxCamNo=5;
    int camNo=0;
    int camIdx=0;

    VideoCapture cap[maxCamNo];

    while(1){
    cap[camIdx].open(camIdx);
     if(!cap[camIdx].isOpened())  // check if we succeeded
        break;
      camIdx ++;
     }

    camNo = camIdx;

        if(camNo<1) {
    cout<<"No camera attached...!"<<endl;
    return -1;
    }

    Mat frame[camNo];

    char WinName[10];
    for(;;)
    {
        for(int i=0;i<camNo;i++){
         cap[i] >> frame[i];
         sprintf(WinName,"Camera%d",i);
         imshow(WinName, frame[i]);
        }

        char c=waitKey(30);

        if( c== 27) break;
    }

    return 0;
}
