Some vendors routinely implement new formats without bothering to send a patch
for the uvcvideo driver. It would be easy to do so, but it requires knowing
which format is meant by the GUID. Most format GUIDs are of the form
32595559-0000-0010-8000-00aa00389b71 that starts with a 4CC, but that's not
the case here.

Could you send me the output of

lsusb -v -d 0bda:58f4

running as root if possible ?
