[Bug 6290] Re: No rights by default to import video from a Firewire device

:~$ ls -al /dev/raw1394
crw-rw---- 1 root disk 171, 0 2006-04-07 22:37 /dev/raw1394

Once I added the user to 'disk' group, Kino was able to import video. This is a single (human) user laptop. What are the security implications of allowing this?

Or, is there a way to force Kino to use /dev/video1394 instead?
