The WAR stuff means the capture demon is not running.

General advice did you set your shared mem?
check zmc and zma logs too.

[Failed to open video device /dev/video0: Permission denied]
Typically, zmfix is run at startup as root to set permissions so zmc will be able to access the device. It seems its not doing its job for you, but in most distros /dev/videoX are root:video, so adding the user zmc runs on to the video group should also do the job.

I try run as root, error still remains [Failed to open video device /dev/video0: Permission denied]Debian squezze.mastertheknife wrote:[Failed to open video device /dev/video0: Permission denied]

Without changing anything, I tried another camera and everything was working well
