Turns out, this duplicates are just misinterpretations.

The linux uvcvideo driver will parse the uvc header payload twice. (If
the FID was incremented inbetween). This led to those double misleading
outputs. Although this means that there is a bug in
uvc_video_stats_decode for incrementing the error count.

Anyway, so just ignore this whole thread and be thanked for even having any
thoghts on this.
