|
|
Hallo,
I use dvgrab to fetch the footagefrom my hdcam. However a permissions issue arises:
| Code: | dvgrab -f hdv -a --timestamp
raw1394 - failed to get handle: Permission denied. |
I need to su to root and chmod a+rw /dev/raw1394.
How could I possibly enable raw1394 with a+rw permissions automatically?
Kind regards,
orange_juice

Add your user to the video group, that should fix it. |

Weird, that means that /dev/raw1394 is not part of video capturing devices group as mentioned in the manual. Can you give me the output of:
ls -la /dev/raw1394
please? |

Okay, that means you just have to fix it yourself then .
echo "chown root:video /dev/raw1394" >> /etc/conf.d/local.start
Reboot and enjoy user acces . |
