Rookie: Web cam wont start

Get Help Webcams
1

What is the problem?
The web cam wont start. I'm using what I believe to be Microsoft LifeCam Cinema.

What did you already try to solve it?
I have messed with various settings in the octopi.txt. Currently at camera_usb_options="-r HD -f 20"

Additional information about your setup (OctoPrint version, OctoPi version, printer, firmware, octoprint.log, serial.log or output on terminal tab, ...)

I'm using the following

Vilros Raspberry Pi Zero W
OctoPrint Version 1.3.11 (PrusaPrint)
Prusa mk3

Some logs or a detailed error message might help.
