Seems my attempt to escape from your attention didn't went unnoticed :-)

Thanks. I see what's wrong. Your device is not UVC compliant :-S

There's a small error in the UVC descriptors that prevent the driver from 
detecting the device correctly. The uncompressed frame descriptors should be 
numbered from 1 to 7, but they are instead numbered from 1 to 8 with number 7 
missing.

According to the UVC specification, the bFrameIndex field "selects the video 
frame resolution from the array of resolutions supported by the selected 
stream. The index value ranges from 1 to the number of Frame descriptors 
following a particular Format descriptor." The device is thus not UVC 
compliant.

Here's a patch that should fix the issue. It hasn't been stress-tested, so it 
might crash your kernel. Please let me know if it helps.

Best regards,

Laurent Pinchart
