  Right, you just need to make sure that the user inside the container has permission to the device. They cover this in the front page of the repo: github.com/…/peertube-plugin-hardware-transcode-v…

    And you can map internal users to external users. This isn’t as common with Docker since things tend to run as root, so maybe look up Podman docs where it’s more common since it’s whole schtick is running with minimal permissions.

      this would be useful but i was never able to figure out how. :/

        Basically this:

        docker run -it --user $UID:$GID
        

        Pass it a user and group that have the appropriate access, and no more. You can also set this in Docker compose or whatever other abstraction you’re using.

    right, so what confused me is that the basic setup works for owncast, but the same setup not for peertube.
