Short writeup about working around ("fixing") a family of broken USB video capture devices that would return "unable to get BOS descriptor" on #Linux due to bad firmware.

Recording 4K60 on Linux is now easy (my first kernel patch) - Johannes' blog
Recording 4K60 on Linux used to be a mess. As of Linux 6.19 you plug in an Elgato 4K X, open OBS, and get clean 4K60 with the in-kernel driver and no extra software. What fixed it is a small USB quirk i got into the kernel. i needed this for my daughter Karolina’s YouTube channel, Karo’s Gaming World, which records clean 4K60 Nintendo gameplay. Shameless plug: if you like that kind of thing, leave her a sub. :)
