"Video DataSource is Offline or not responding" - why?

This is a second problem I'm having running Eztwain to capture single images.

I'm getting this message (see Title) after taking a single image with a webcam and then trying to take a second.

I'm Using Eztwain to control the webcam.  And that has a function (TWAIN_SHUTDOWN) which should completely clear all image handles, filehandles, etc related to the relevant device and image capture software. But obviously it doesn't, so I need to be performing some additional step and I've no idea what.

It is obviously something being clung on to by the software because closing the application revives the Video Datasource but I don't even know what to look for.

Suggestions?
