Hi Justin,

(The linux-uvc-devel mailing list has been moved to SourceForge, I've CC'ed 
the new list)

-27 is -EFBIG. As the uvcvideo driver set the ASAP isochronous scheduling flag 
when submitting URBs, this most probably results from a bug in the USB host 
controller hardware, from a bug in the USB host controller driver, or from a 
driver that blocks interrupts for several tens of milliseconds.

Which kernel version are you using ? An isochronous scheduling regression has 
been fixed recently between v3.2-rc3 and v3.2-rc5. You might want to try v3.2 
when it will be released.

Could you please send me the complete lsusb -v output for the device ? I'll 
then add it to the supported devices list.
