Question / Help New camera being detected but not displaying image

Just got this new chinese action camera today, and it comes with a "pc camera" mode, which I was eager to try (even though I didn't buy that camera for that). Plugged into the computer, its detected, OBS Studio detects it, but when I activate it it just stays black.

I tried with ManyCam and XSplit software, and both detected it and was able to display images. So... why can't OBS Studio (nor normal OBS) display iamges? On a technical side, the feed is/would be h.264, so I don't know if its why it wouldn't work with OBS.

Any idea what can I do?

A log file of the scene would be beneficial, so we could see what parameters were set for the camera.
