Trying to share a wintv-dualHD USB tuner with a docker container via the --device option and I have been unsuccesful so far…
-running an ubuntu 18.04 host of course with the modified kernel for the tuner.
-running the official plex docker container (plexpass version)
-sharing via --device=/dev/dvb:/dev/dvb --device=/dev/usb:/dev/usb even tried with -v /sys/devices:/sys/devices
in the docker run command
- the user running plex is part of the docker and video groups
- I have tried to chown -R the /dev/dvb dir to user:docker or user:user
The logs are just telling me that is is unable to open the frontend…

does anyone have any other suggestions?
Th tuner does work and is found if I run plex directly on the host withh the .deb install…
and no the container and the host installed plex are not running at the same time
