I just did once again like so:

ENABLE_WASM=1 chrome --incognito --user-data-dir=/tmp/chrome

with of course:

/dev/video0 rw

added in both /etc/chromium/unveil.main and
/etc/chromium/unveil.utility_video

and ls -lh /dev/video* gives me this:

lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 6 Nov 20 17:24 /dev/video -> video0
crw------- 1 robert robert 44, 0 Nov 20 17:24 /dev/video0
crw------- 1 root wheel 44, 1 Nov 20 17:24 /dev/video1

where robert is my username.

Nevertheless, access to the camera is still denied and the console
returns the same message over and over:

uvideo0: could not SET probe request: STALLED

Needless to mention that firefox-esr works.

I must say that the fact it works on your side gives me hope, thank
you! I must keep looking into this.

большое спасибо,
