you have another choise to change the permissions on /dev/video* and /dev/vbi* :

edit your /etc/devfsd.conf
search for v4l and delete that line... enter this data:

# Video4Linux devices
REGISTER       v4l/.*       PERMISSIONS root.video 660
REGISTER       ^v4l/video0$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink v4l/video0 video
                                                                                
# LIRC devices
REGISTER       lirc/.*       PERMISSIONS root.video 660
REGISTER       lircd         PERMISSIONS root.video 660
REGISTER       lircm         PERMISSIONS root.video 660




There you go ;)
