<br>Is this happening to anyone else?<br><br>I discovered that the source of this problem was a gentoo change in the /etc/init.d script. It now runs mythbackend as user "myth" instead of user "root".<br>
<br>Now, mythbackend SHOULD run as myth. However, it requires knowing exactly what stuff that user will need access to, and I have NO idea what those things are (and the myth logs are not helpful). I get permission denied on /dev/v4l/video even when I am positive that the myth user has access to it.
<br><br>For now, I changed the /etc/init.d/mythbackend script to start as root instead of myth, but can anyone list off which devices mythbackend should need access to and what I will have to do to let it run as non-root? Assuming a PVR/350/250/150/500/etc card. Thanks!
