Ok Pi masters... anyone doing any video catpure?

I've been sorting some of the gear I was using at the church back during
covid for streaming.  Said USB video capture worked just fine on a windoze
box with OBS or anything else for that matter.

Its a

Bus 001 Device 022: ID 534d:2109 MacroSilicon USB Video

Driver Info:
        Driver name      : uvcvideo
        Card type        : USB Video: USB Video
        Bus info         : usb-3f980000.usb-1.4
        Driver version   : 6.1.21
        Capabilities     : 0x84a00001

Steadfastly refuses to provide any video in either mjpg-streamer or
u-streamer.

I'm using raspbian based on PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)"

Anyone had any joy with this device on any Pi?  Is there mebbe a flavour its
jsut going to work out of the box with?  I've tried all sorts of fixes
suggested in all sorts of forums with no joy.

PS: the rest of the system appears fine it'll stream from a bog standard USB
camera, just not the grabber.
