I would like to know how to use my laptop's built-in webcam with android x86 in virtualbox.
I already tried to launch the default "Camera" app that told me that I had to configure a SDCard, what I did with this tutorial : SD card virtualbox
But now I would like to know how to make the VM be aware of my webcam and let it be used by android.
I downloaded the plugin for USB2 hosts but the webcam does not appear in the devices list...
Thank you for your help!
I am just pasting it here from ASK UBUNTU as it was also a necessary step to activate the USB camera (still works 2023):
The same answer of @Nathan Osman , However , it required to belong to vboxusers group to be able to see all devices on adding one.
Logout & login again , check if your vboxusers displays in this command :
