I also feed Orioles and Hummers and have not had a problem in feeding both.  I have one feeder that is specifically for the Oriole's ( orange base) and hang that one a little distance away form the Hummer feeders.  So far no problems.

I frequently see  and photo orioles and hummingbirds in the same locations, often with feeders only a few feet apart.  I see no problems.
