I setup OctoPrint via OctoPI today. After a print I shutdown the RPI 3B and installed the camera, everything working fine and camera was found in OctoPrint. After being off for a while I tried installing a touch screen to the RPI, booting it up and running the instructions on GitHub - goodtft/LCD-show: 2.4" 2.8"3.2" 3.5" 5.0" 7.0" TFT LCD driver for the Raspberry PI 3B+/A/A+/B/B+/PI2/ PI3/ZERO/ZERO W with the script being LCD-show/LCD35-show at 1bba9d97a4e779237f3144d035c409ed3a3b2f45 · goodtft/LCD-show · GitHub. I suspect this altered something, but am not Linux savvy enough to know if that was the problem.
Camera model Raspberry PI cam 1.3
What is the problem? Webcam not recognised by OctoPrint
What did you already try to solve it? Reboot

There should be no problems with USB (a.k.a. select() timeout)
