Question / Help MS Lifecam / OBS / W10 / 16:9

Hi there! I know we all had a lot of issues using our webcams on W10. For me... It's impossible to install my Lifecam since I use W10. I understand the idea is that ALL camera's should work effortlessly on W10, but they won't. My Lifecam works anyway without the drivers, but NOT natively in OBS in 1920-1080. It doesn't show a 16:9 kind of picture in OBS, but a sort of 4:3...
As far as solutions for the operating of the webcams in general, this is what a lot of people are enthousiastic about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8bVq4Kv4ms
And I am too, since I executed these instructions, the camera works better. Scaling (by stretching) results in a more fluent video stream.
But still... The picture is 4:3, and it is a shame I have to stretch the picture and thus lower the resolution.
Anyone an idea how to solve this?

I got my lifecam to work (minus audio right now) with a USB booster cable attached. Greatly lessened the cutting in and out and dropping out.
