QTCaptureSession does not receive any data from the camera

I have two USB cameras. One of them is an inexpensive WebCam , the other is an inexpensive USB microscope ; both bought from eBay. A microscope is just another webcam.

I want to use a USB microscope with Mac OS X 10.5 and QTKit. MyRecorder works great with my inexpensive WebCam, but it only displays black video when I plug in the microscope.

If I open QuickTime Player and create a video, I get the error message: "Recording failed because the data was not received." Make sure the media input source is turned on and playing. "

The capture sequence demo works with both cameras.

miXscope also works with both cameras (it seems to use sequence capture).

Here's a stripped down MyRecorder (for a better overview):

- (void)awakeFromNib
{
    NSError *error;

    mCaptureSession = [[QTCaptureSession alloc] init];
    QTCaptureDevice *videoDevice = [QTCaptureDevice defaultInputDeviceWithMediaType:QTMediaTypeVideo];
    BOOL success = [videoDevice open:&error];
    if(!success)
    {
        videoDevice = [QTCaptureDevice defaultInputDeviceWithMediaType:QTMediaTypeMuxed];
        success = [videoDevice open:&error];
    }
    if(!success) return;
    mCaptureVideoDeviceInput = [[QTCaptureDeviceInput alloc] initWithDevice:videoDevice];
    success = [mCaptureSession addInput:mCaptureVideoDeviceInput error:&error];
    if(!success) return;
    if(![videoDevice hasMediaType:QTMediaTypeSound] && ![videoDevice hasMediaType:QTMediaTypeMuxed])
    {
        QTCaptureDevice *audioDevice = [QTCaptureDevice defaultInputDeviceWithMediaType:QTMediaTypeSound];
        success = audioDevice && [audioDevice open:&error];
        if(success)
        {
            mCaptureAudioDeviceInput = [[QTCaptureDeviceInput alloc] initWithDevice:audioDevice];
            success = [mCaptureSession addInput:mCaptureAudioDeviceInput error:&error];
        }
    }
    mCaptureMovieFileOutput = [[QTCaptureMovieFileOutput alloc] init];
    success = [mCaptureSession addOutput:mCaptureMovieFileOutput error:&error];
    if(!success) return;
    [mCaptureMovieFileOutput setDelegate:self];
    [mCaptureView setCaptureSession:mCaptureSession];
    [mCaptureSession startRunning];
}

What do I need to add / change for my microscope to work with MyRecorder? (I tried to log everything I could think of, but I don't get any errors from any QTKit method that I call).

Note. I reviewed all the StackOverflow questions that I could find on this issue, two questions came close, but they do not solve this problem.
