Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) has the following permissions:
crw-rw---- 1 root video 243, 0 Oct 26 07:17 /dev/vchiq
Using the Raspberry Pi 4 production image, /dev/vchiq has the following permissions:
crw------- 1 root root 243, 0 Aug 6 07:25 /dev/vchiq
Can you please allow users in the video group access to this device in your image? I’m unable to get a non-root user to run omxplayer
The workaround that I have in place is:
- Entering the HostOS Terminal and running:
chmod 777 /dev/vchiq
and then restarting the container / service in question. This is reset after every reboot of the host.
