Camera model
Logitech
What is the problem?
I want to be able to unplug the webcam when I am not running the printer and plug it back in when I want to start using the printer without having to reboot the Docker container. However, the Docker container does not reattach to the camera because the camera is mounted to /dev/video1 instead of /dev/video0 when plugged back in. I suspect this is because Octoprint keeps video0 mounted when it is unplugged. How can I work around this? Or can it be fixed in the Octoprint program?
What did you already try to solve it?
Logs (/var/log/webcamd.log, syslog, dmesg, ... no logs, no support)
No logs exist for /var/log/webcamd.log and nothing about video in octoprint.log
