Thanks for the report! The USB id used is shared by several Panasonic models,
thats why you see the incorrect name.
Capture over USB does not seem to be supported for this Panasonic class,
only over WLAN.
This might be doing PTPIP, which we would support, or they might have invented
yet another remote protocol :/
