Connecting GoPro Hero 8 to OBS via External HDMI Video Capture

I've just bought a GoPro Hero 8 and have hooked it up to my PC via the micro-HDMI out on the GoPro, into a USB HDMI Capture Card (see link below) and then into the PC via standard 3.0 USB.

This is the (basic) HDMI capture card i'm using:

OBS can see the capture card as a video source, but am not getting any video / image showing from the GoPro.

Can't work out why... any suggestions?

Cheers in advance :-)

I've resolved this... In case anyone has the same issue, my HDMI capture device was connected to my PC via a 4-way USB hub. OBS wouldn't pick up any video if I used that option.

When i connected the capture device to a USB port on my PC directly, everything worked fine.
