Description
I want to capture the video from the web usb camera of multipass instance, but I can not
find how to add the video device to multipass instance.
Before use multipass, I had use docker container.
Under the docker container, I can add video device just like: docker run -d /dev/video0:/dev/video0 ........
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue mentions no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating Multipass's instance device and host integration code, then determine the supported host platforms and device-passthrough requirements. Done means a host video device can be exposed reliably inside an instance, with coverage for the supported environments.
