I have several of each of the two versions of the BRIO, but one reacts VERY differently from the other. So I decided to 'dig' into things and use ffmpeg to request what formats are available from each version of the camera. You will see from the two outputs below, that the 'BRIO 4K Stream Edition' does not seem to support any of the 4K resolutions. It also seems to have an extra capture pin expressing a low resolution Logitech propriety 'thumbnail' output.

Any ideas, surly Logitech arnt pushing a 4K webcam that can't actualy do 4K?

Actually, both versions of Brio are identical. Only the marketing/packaging differs. I have this right from the product manager, who I interviewed when the product launched.

As a long-time blogger in the Unified Communications space, I got a sample Brio on release. I noted that it could deliver 4K30 when used with MS Camera, with very low latency.

Brio isn't the issue. Access via DirectShow is the problem. Direct Show is a legacy access mechanism that is long deprecated, but still widely used.

It comes down to this, to get 4K30 over USB3 you must encode carefully. Using DirectShow you must use MJPEG. It works, but there is considerable latency.

If a developer implements device access using the newer Microsoft Media Framework (MMF) Brio can deliver 4k30 using NV 12 encoding with low latency. This is optimal.

I took the finding to Martin who implemented MF access for Brio in vMix 22. The camera is listed as "Logitech Brio MF" to indicate the new access method.

I detailed all of this in a review on my blog: https://www.mgraves.org/...echs-brio-4k-webcam-pro/

Note that the current release of OBS still uses Direct Show. As a result, you can access Brio at 4k30 by manually selecting MJPEG encoding, but there's considerable latency.

The same holds true for the Logitech Rally 4K PTZ camera, which I also have in-house. However, it's in some way different. Martin added MF access for Rally, but it doesn't work as expected. The device is not common so there's been little reason to solve that problem.
